If so, what do you think about it? I just made the switch from endeavourOS. I had some technical issues at first but that’s all fixed now and I’m really impressed. I thought I was done distro-hopping but apparently not.

    I’m glad to find that the general perception on CachyOS has definitely changed for the better. I believe it was two or three years ago when I stumbled upon CachyOS for the very first time. I don’t think it did anything noticeably different back then compared to now. But as it was still relatively new, people didn’t quite jump on the bandwagon. As such, I actually received quite a bit of condemnation whenever I tried to recommend the distro to others. I’m glad to see that it’s currently flourishing. Congratz to the CachyOS team for sticking to their guns. Whenever a product is good, it will eventually receive recognition.

    I think it is one of the more interesting recent distro’s. Gaming set up out of the box. it has one of the easier zfs on root install options. Has plasma 6 which a lot of “major” distro’s do not have in their stable release yet.

    I tried to use it on my laptop but i have a piece of hardware catchy doesn’t like. Dev’s were helpful when i was trying to get it to work, but we didn’t figure it out then. I now know what was causing the problem, so maybe i’ll give it another try.

      ZFS was a big selling point for me. I have yet to actually learn how to use it though. I’m still shocked at how many distros ship Plasma 6. It makes Debian kind of useless to me now. What issue were you having? Someone having the same issue might see this and find the solution.

    I’m using their optimized x64v4 repos on an otherwise plain Arch. No idea about any performance difference, I just want to make sure all the CPU progress in recent years doesn’t go to waste.

    I’ve been using cachyos on my computer for around a year or more, I think? It’s been fine, but I prefer endeavorOS overall.
    I like the more vanilla feeling of endeavour if it makes sense.
    I also had some technical issues, but nothing insurmountable. The last several months we’re uneventful actually. There are not enough differences for me to switch yet and I assume cachy is a bit faster, but I can’t tell for sure.
