@brudibrau My tower's #Arch came into existence in early Dec 2019, not installed #TheArchWay but via #archfi, which gave simply fabulously granular control options, whilst being more friendly than trying to follow the Arch Installation Wiki with its never ending chain of hyperlinks leading to links to links to links. It's been & remains superb for me. That said, i've not checked for a while if the project remains active, ie, for the installer script to have kept up with various Arch changes, & also tech developments like #LVM & #BtrFS etc. Well worth consideration.
For 3 years before that, i ran #Manjaro. Whilst i don't regret that experience [& learned a lot from it], i'd never go back to it [governance ethics, security, repo philosophy, dubious mods to kernels et al]. Nonetheless, MJ ofc has a loyal following, beautiful theming, an easy to use Calamares Installer, & pretty impressive hardware flexibility.
#EndeavourOS is another high-profile #Archie with GUI installer [Calamares again]. Though it also provides certain customisations, overall it produces a system much closer to pure Arch than MJ does.
Other #Archies that also spare you from needing to do the full #TAW manual installation, & which IMO are worthy of consideration too, include #ALG [ArchLinux GUI Installer], #Archcraft, #CalamArchInstaller, #ArchLabs, #ZenInstaller, #Anarchy, #ArcoLinux.
If you're interested in something a bit more radical, #blendOS is essentially a GUI-installed "immutable Arch" that also supports #Fedora & #Ubuntu packages. I'm playing with it, part-time, in one of my VMs, to decide what i think of it.
Oh, it'd be remiss of me not to mention #ArchInstall to you. This is a newish official Arch project for a guided-installer direct from the Arch ISO. It works decently for relatively simple partitioning schemes, but has been giving me a PITA since at least last October for my preferred schema -- if you search Masto for that hashtag you'll find my various posts about it.
