Oh, I didn’t know that one, it looks interesting. I was quite hyped with GoboLinux because it tried to mitigate the things that annoy me the most in linux, that’s how complex is the installing (and uninstalling, mainly) of programs. I mean, you always have the distros’ package managers (apt, pacman, aur, yum, …), compiling by hand and moving or linking to system folders, downloading a binary, flatpak, snap, brew, appimage. When I get to uninstall a program for some reason, I never know how to do it, because I never remember how I installed it.
EndeavourOS (which is very close to vanilla Arch, in a good way) comes with yay, which makes installing software super easy. You can search for and install a program by just typing “yay <program name>” and selecting what you want to download. Note that this also works for anything in the AUR, which includes lots of stuff that you’d usually have to manually compile.

Do tell us how it goes!!! I thought endeavouros was better than Manjaro, but I absolutely encourage you to explore your options :)

+1 on Endeavour instead of Manjaro. EOS is better in every respect plus it’s much closer to vanilla Arch.
