I also use Garuda. While I wouldn’t normally suggest an Arch-based distro to someone newer, the developers there did a pretty good job at making it more approachable and user friendly for people who aren’t used to Arch.
The default BTRFS filesystem setup with automatic Snapper snapshots at each update also gives some extra stability insurance to the rolling release. If an update does temporarily screw something up (as very occasionally happens)–or you manage to do something to the system yourself–you can just boot using a previous system snapshot until the issue is fixed. Another reason I would recommend Garuda where I wouldn’t necessarily suggest Arch or most derivatives.
