I am running EndeavourOS and it's possible to function without terminal. I use it because I love it but no need at least not for app installing having Discover.
Anyway can't compare an arch based distro to Fedora or Ubuntu
Didn't you have to install that via the terminal? Discover store is not installed on EndeavourOS by default. You must have installed it and forgot.
Why not?
They are both built for stability, Arch is built to be bleeding edge.
None is superior to the other, that depends on the user, but an arch-based distro will require the terminal sooner than later, while you don't need to touch it in Ubuntu.
Because Fedora and Ubuntu (Debian) have been around for forever? In my experience Arch also feels more like a your on your own kind of Distro which I liked back in the day (build one myself with an online guide), but now I just want my machine to run and function unattended besides the updates.
