One for XFCE. A reasonble workflow with lots of customizability. Default is a Windows XP workflow, but with extensions you can emulate any desktop, including MATE. The XFCE apps are light and stable with poweruser features, while being reasonably easy to approach.

Garuda Linux. It's like Manjaro, in fact some utilities are forked from it, but done right.

You can also try EndeavourOS.

Endeavor's problem is a Calamares problem in specific.

Pro tip: use an external partition editor before the install. For endeavor, this used to be gparted, but is now partitionmanager. (It even comes with the ISO!)
