Just curious to see what people are up to. I've been using Nixos for a while. It's fabulous and I have absolutely no reason to switch, but part of me is itching to hop to Debian or maybe OpenSUSE. How about you?

It's a common English idiom, referring to something that is difficult or taxing to accomplish, often without payoff.

I see. To me using EndeavourOS is not bending over backwards, because it is not more difficult than using bare metal Archlinux. Just saying, because you say you don't understand people doing that. I don't do it. EndeavourOS makes it more easy and less headache to use Arch in my opinion. And from that perspective, it's a win situation.
