Garuda Linux

Garuda Linux is a userfriendly and performance orientated distro which is based on Arch Linux. Unlike Arch, the installation process is easy and management easy because of many included advanced GUI tools to manage the system. Garuda Linux provides system security by using automatic BTRFS snapshots when upgrading which you can boot into if an upgrade fails.

Features

The Linux-zen kernel
BTRFS as the default filesytem with zstd compression
Automatic Snapper snapshots before system upgrades
Easy to install, setup and use (Calamares installer)
A custom-themed desktop experience that is easy on the eyes and out of your way
GUI for managing drivers and the kernel
Proprietary Nvidia driver support: select the 'driver=nonfree' GRUB option at startup
GUI tools for snapshot management and system administration
