With archinstall, I largely agree. However, you still need to make a lot of choices. Which kernel branch? Which filesystem? Enable swap? Which desktop environment? And other choices that I forget, it’s been a few uses since I used Arch.
Gamers Nexus is very clear they want to avoid making decisions. They want to stick as close as possible to as possible, but that’s tricker since Arch doesn’t have defaults for those, unlike Bazzite. Bazzite uses the Fedora kernel (which follows the latest stable); btrfs; zswap; desktop environment they do provide a choice between KDE and Gnome, in which case is easier to choose KDE since it’s what Valve is pushing.
