Arch-based distro EndeavourOS gets a new Ganymede release

Easily one of the best ways to try out a form of Arch Linux, the popular EndeavourOS has a new release with Ganymede out now. Being careful with my wording not to attract the pitchforks from the pure Arch Linux crowd, EndeavourOS is mostly Arch Linux but with a simple to use installer and some packaging tweaks to make getting up and running simple with it.

So all the fresh upgrades you get from Arch Linux, wrapped up in an easy to use package. Now and then they release a big refresh of their ISO downloads, which bring various tweaks and now after some time waiting - their latest release Ganymede has officially arrived.
