+
+> A terminal-centric distro with a dynamic and friendly community in its core
+
+The slogan on [their homepage](https://endeavouros.com/) perfectly describes
+the intent of EndeavourOS: create an Arch-based distro that doesn't stray far
+from the original feel of plain old Arch, but with a friendlier community.
+
+For the uninitiated, it's generally known that the Arch community can be a bit
+harsh at times; [RTFM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTFM) is a regular 
+occurrence. And even though this encourages people to try things out themselves
+and learn more about how Linux works, it can be a bit scary for newcomers.
+
+Now, I've been using this distro for about two weeks on my old MacBook, and I
+have to say that I'm impressed.
+
+## Installation
+EndeavourOS uses the Calamares installer, so the install is about as
+straightforward as it gets. I've come to use EndeavourOS as my "easy install"
+for Arch, because it just feels like regular Arch. You can download their ISO
+[here](https://endeavouros.com/latest-release/). They also have an
+[ARM version](https://arm.endeavouros.com/), which I might try later on my
+Raspberry Pi.
+
+For my install, I choose the i3wm version, as I prefer tiling window managers.
+I also discovered that a desktop environment (Plasma in my case) is just too
+much for my old MacBook to handle, so i3wm was not a difficult choice. The Only
+thing I changed about the initial config was tweak the key bindings a bit to
+use the Vim bindings instead of the i3 ones.
+
+## First Impressions
+When we boot into our fresh installation, we're greeted with a simple, yet
+elegant LightDM login screen. Out of the box, the i3 config is quite welcoming
+and polished, albeit a tad crowded for my tastes, but this can be easily solved
+by editing the config files.
+
+By default, a welcome screen pops up whenever we boot the computer, and a
+terminal is launched. I personally find this decision quite odd, but to each
+their own. And of course we can just turn this off by changing one line in the
+config.
+
+This brings us to how closely this distro resembles pure Arch. No
+fancy GUIs to configure everything, just a terminal and a text editor is needed
+to configure it for your own needs.
+
+EndeavourOS is very lightweight, barely consuming 300MB of ram on startup. This
+result may vary if you've chosen another desktop environment/window manager.
+This is one of the reasons I chose EndeavourOS: I needed sometimes light,
+something that my 7-year-old MacBook could run without issues. I previously ran
+PopOS! on it, and while this is a great distro, it was too heavy for this old
+thing.
