Yes and no. I'm lazy so I used EndeavourOS. It uses the Arch repositories 
and AUR and includes a couple of useful utilities like yay. The default DE 
is KDE/Plasma so it looks like any other KDE system. What you miss is all 
the fun of creating partitions, formatting them, setting up fstab, adding 
users, and so forth. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt, don't need to 
spend a couple of hours doing it again.

I am using the Sway WM and that might be called a different way of 
thinking.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sway_(window_manager)

it's not as glitzy as Hyprland, doesn't do animations, rounded corners, 
transparent windows, blurs, and all the rest of that shit. I'm just as 
opinionated as Hansson. It's a bit like Vim. A virgin stumbling into a 
Sway session is confronted with an empty screen with a little 1 in the 
upper left corner. That's all folks. If you don't know what you're doing 
you can't even log out of the session.
