While I know of Garuda, I have no experience in using it, hence I cannot recommend it. IIRC it's also quite gaming-focused? Their default neon look and feel throws me off, I would have to clean it all up for my tastes, which I don´t want to bother with.

I've become a lazy arch-based linux distro user...

I do, using endeavourOS, which is basically "arch but with a graphical installer, using some sane defaults". Not 100% true, but true enough to think of it as such.

If you have no experience installing Linux, either use endeavouros, or go the RFTM way, and use arch. But that last one requires a lot of reading, and grasping quite a lot of Linux concepts, or be willing to learn them.

PS: I do use plain arch on my AMD laptop, but couldn't be arsed to go through the installation for my Nvidia desktop.

Endeavouros ofcourse! All the goodness of arch, but with the ease of installation of any other desktop based distro!

Which brand/type can you recommend? I want some, but I find them hard to search for.

Especially with the amazon whatever slightly matching keywords providing bogus results.
