Need help with choosing the right Manjaro setup
I found the project https://github.com/gardotd426/regolith-de , which strives to have regolith on Manjaro, but it seems like it relies on one single person who is currently working on updating to regolith 2.0, which may take a while. Basically, I did not want to go with it because I was afraid of not having my system updated (again, maybe I'm wrong here again).
- Regolith is a modern desktop environment designed to let you work faster by reducing unnecessary clutter and ceremony. Built on top of Ubuntu, GNOME, and i3, Regolith stands on a well-supported and consistent foundation.

Managing settings without an integrated control center
It has its own distro based on Ubuntu, but there's also a PPA for Ubuntu-based distributions, and on Arch there's a PKGBUILD at my github https://github.com/gardotd426/regolith-de which you can use to install Regolith desktop environment on Arch-based distributions. It's getting ready to go live on the AUR, but I've had dozens of testers and it's ready for general use (I just want to clean up the PKGBUILD a bit before putting it live).

Revived my T61!
There's no installer, but there is a PKGBUILD for arch available in this git-repo. It's an unofficial port though, so it may have some minor issues. For me everything works fine, I use Arco + regolith on my X1, my desktop PC and now my T61. Not sure if you know regolith, but it won't look like in my picture out of the box as it uses i3-bar by default and I use polybar. I can give you configs etc to make it look like that though.

Best window manager for Arch with
Since this is your first foray into this world I’d suggest you look into nwg-shell. It’s a sway (and hyprland) based WM that brings some of the niceties of a desktop over to this WM world for you. It comes complete with a gui for setting all the configs, and 4 desktop options, plus the ability to change it to your hearts content. There’s a dock, an app drawer, wallpaper app, and tons of things to tinker with. It’s written in Go and Python and you can change pretty much anything however you want.
