Not really a "anti malware" per se, but you can always set up a separate linux device (like a orange pi zero 3) and set it up as a network ad blocker with nextdns (which apparently it can be (also) a "anti malware" -- which I haven't tested if it is legit or not, but eh.).

To use (and enjoy) Linux properly, you've got to "unlearn" several things including the bad habit of expect everything to "just werk". If you are expecting to "double click your cares away" on Linux, then it's (very) likely you'll be disappointed.

With that aside, your best bet is to go for Linux Mint and not Arch Linux.

Eh, just try new commands in your distro and see what happens -- "time is the best teacher of em all".

imo, that is like learning a new language you'll never use -- who on earth would search for new employees that can compile their own distro? It's fun at first, but definitely not useful.

Being fun does not make (thing) a necessity let alone useful -- there are a lot of useless things that are fun.

"But can Linux install things via a single .exe file? HAHAH EAT IT NERD!"

- 10'ish years ago past me, before discovering the magical wonders of the package manager

A "lame" fix for this is to go to /usr/share/hyprland/ and delete all png files stored there. "It's not stupid if it works". :^)
