I'm confused... is your "entire drive" wiped or no?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

No just /dev/sda2 partition Others are safe
No idea what floorp is, but it sounds like it just messed up your desktop cache. I doubt it actually erased anything. Unless you clicked through the 'you're about to uninstall 530 packages' popup that you get when you break your OS by installing from third party repositories that don't support your OS version, then it'll uninstall every conflicting package (which in some extreme cases means "your desktop environment"). Your user folder should still have all of your files though.
Also, if you enable the AUR on Endeavour, make sure to always update every package every time, or the same thing can happen there without adding any other software sources.
can anyone tell me how to theme GTK-based GNOME apps on KDE
Badly. Neither KDE nor Gnome can style the other particularly well. KDE offers more options, but I've never bothered with trying to get the theme to feel "right" on the KDE installs I've messed with.
You can do basic styling in the main UI settings. I don't think KDE supports styling libadwaita yet, though. I also believe you need to do some extra hackery to make Flatpak apps pick up your KDE settings. You may also need extra packages (qt5-style-plugins or such) depending on the applications you install.

Technically, even Gnome doesn't officially support theaming libadwaita apps. The unofficial ways all amout to hacky methods at best (applying an user made css on top of the default style).
Applying a user made css has always been how the themes work, though? Without a fallback theme, Gnome apps wouldn't run on platforms like KDE.
You can select GTK themes under:
System Settings > Colors & Themes > Application Style > Configure GNOME/GTK Application Style
For Flatpaks you need to run
pacman -S xdg-desktop-portal xdg-desktop-portal-kde xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
Support is limited tho.
Thanks
Was Floorp installed as a flatpak? I once had my file system corrupted after installing or updating a flatpak browser.
No, PPA. I am still not sure what actually wiped my data but it happen just after update. But Thanks
Also Universe is really testing me lately.

Since you're on Endeavor, now, the Arch wiki is definitely your friend. Good luck! Hope you love it!
Thanks, Cool now I have a wiki.
