EndeavourOS has been my distro of choice for a while now. It is also what I suggest to a newbie looking to try arch. But even as someone who knows Arch inside and out, sometimes you just want to save time. You can use the custom installer to install Arch without EndeavourOS's apps or tweaks, but with a speedy and friendly GUI.
That's what I'm using now on my T16 Thinkpad, and it's great. It's a powerful desktop OS. Although I did have to tweak it a lot to get all the hardware to work (it was a very new laptop).
