    Wish you the best, but its a bad choice. The AUR isn’t safe, as-in reliable between updates.

    Valve makes snapshots into their versioned atomic OS, so its safe. Plus a few custom packages, they don’t just use Arch and their choice isn’t relevant IMO.

      Yup, if I were doing this business, I’d install Linux Mint by default, though I’d offer a few other options if customers want something specific.

        Or Fedora if the user picks Gnome. Honestly, don’t make users pick distros, but user interfaces. Most wouldn’t want to understand the technical differences between Mint/Fedora/whatever because at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter.

          Agreed. If the customer knows what distro they want, they can install it themselves.
