Arkane Linux
Arkane Linux is an opinionated soft-fork of Arch Linux, it aims to be an accessible GNOME-centered experience and with sensible non-intrusive defaults. The system is optimized to maximize performance on modern hardware by targeting the x86-64-v3 CPU microarchitecture level.
Arkane Linux avoids unnecessary and intrusive functionality and configuration, it provides a stock gnome-shell bundled exclusively with the core apps required to offer a minimal yet fully-featured GNOME desktop experience.
At its core Arkane Linux is still Arch Linux. When a new major release of Arkane is made available you don't have to upgrade to said new release, you can just stick to your current familiar configuration. Also if CPU microarchitecture levels are ever dropped you could always switch the system over to a normal Arch Linux one.
