@isagalaev you might laugh at me, but I got Endeavor OS (Arch repos with a sensible installation process) on all my kids' machines. It works fine, for the most part. They're not complaining and they're way less afraid of the command line since they have to use it to install and update packages.

@alter_kaker never heard of it! Will give it a look, but I'm not really familiar with the Arch side of the Linux tree myself.
@isagalaev to be honest what really got me hooked is the repositories. It's not as stable as Debian but boy do you get a lot of stuff... Worth a try. But I won't install vanilla Arch again unless I have a good reason to, it's not worth the effort to me. But Endeavor automates that.
@isagalaev for example, Aseprite is available from the package manager, which ensure requirements are installed and builds it from source automatically.

@isagalaev I *think* that we got the Wacom tablet working but I'm not sure because they just use the touchscreen for drawing
