I don’t know about Steam OS but with EndeavourOS, you still have to keep an eye on the Arch news and make any manual interventions that are required. If you don’t, you can end up with a broken system. If you do that, it’s utterly reliable.
Plasma. Or at least it is for me, your opinion may differ.
I’m somewhere between 2 and 3 also. I rarely bring Linux up unless the topic is operating systems or I’m directly asked about it. Then I’ll talk your ears off.
Tumbleweed doesn’t offer a torrent because there’s a new iso nearly every day.
I can’t speak to that as I’ve never used it. I see no reason to change from Plasma.
Yeah but more people run a release on a wider range of hardware do the alphas and betas. While your right about the impression it makes, it really boils down to how quickly things are fixed.
but they did release it too early as it is still quite buggy.
This is often done to get more feedback.
You can add a package to your ignore list, although that is not recommended for the longer term.

No, but then I have quite an old graphics card. Even for my card, the open source drivers are recommended.
I’m sure it’s all buried in their licence agreement.
True, but not things you will use day to day. With such a little machine, I would go with EndeavourOS with i3 or sway and build it up from there.
The only disadvantage is that you have to manually update, unless you’ve installed it from the aur.
Isn’t Zorin very out of date?
That’s one of them, another is EndeavourOS which is my distro of choice.
