It’s the year of Linux on my desktop.

Windows is getting worse, while gaming on Linux is getting better. I’m gonna move my desktop to CachyOS. Wish me luck.

    What really are these magical “optmizations” besides installing the default packages available on every distro?

      I’m not exactly sure, but a few things have worked better out of the box than other distros.

      For example, it boots up faster than any of the other “simple” distros I’ve tried in some time. I tend to like lightweight things that seem to install a “bare minimum” to start, and Cachy appears to do that. It was dead simple to install my favorite window manager, even using X11 instead of Xorg.

      The equivalent minimal mint installation took considerably longer to boot, using pretty much my same settings.
