what are your thoughts on the hottest distro right now?
>>106539056Probably won't exist in the next 5 years.
>>106539056Pass
>>106539056https://wiki.cachyos.org/policy/code_of_conduct/
>>106539106>you can't say slurs like nigger or tranny everywhere you go...shocker
>>106539056its just arch with a calamares installer, custom kernels and its own repo as far as i knowid say its supercharged arch that's about it
>>106539106>>106539221Not your OS responsibility to police the behavior of your contributors.On or off platform. At least it isn't some retarded user end agreement where they revoke your license cause you said Nigger on 4chan.>>106539056I mean, It is to Arch what Bazzite is to Fedora.Easy to install, preloaded with the needed drivers, and mutabilitily/stability/how close to the bleeding edge of tech they are all equivalent to their parent distro.I prefer Bazzite cause it's more stable and I don't like fixing things.Others like cachy cause its bleeding edge tech and super fast even.if things break here and there.
>>106539056
It's good. I need to have sex with Cachy-tan.
>>106539056It's fine for an intro to Linux. All but one of my friends enjoyed it. The other is a fucking autistic retard and got filtered when he couldn't set DPI and rage quit.
>>106539064That or it turns out to be/becomes a FEDkike project/thread
>>106539855>I mean, It is to Arch what Bazzite is to Fedora.I know what you're saying, but wouldn't that title belong to SteamOS since that was Bazzite's main inspiration?
>>106540502It's a good distro if you REALLY care about pulling that last 1% off your hardware while gaming.Mint, clean debian, fedora, even fucking bazzite unironically blow cachy out of the water.
>>106540772He's legitimately not smart enough for any flavor of Linux. Like he's actually stupid and I began to think he can't read. I'm also no longer friends with him for other reasons.
>>106539056Everyone is talking about it, shilling is at max power and infinite levels, yet if I ask about it, no one can give a simple description and my doubt gets derailed by their totally human and organic fansOne anon, one, once said it is designed to be a gaming distro or something. Was he lying? Let's hope not, as it was the only fucking person in the entire board who actually told me something about it, be it false or not>bro just open google and search the info yourselfNo. YOU are selling me the product, if you are going to shill it at least share the info about it motherfuckerI'm starting to believe it's just a fake thing, elaborated trolling
>>106540844has a bunch of gaming optimizations, custom theme like any other distro, based on arch. you can probably do your own gaming optimizations on vanilla arch:https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Gaming#Improving_performancealso has it's own kernel flavor:> linux-cachyos — The Linux SCHED-EXT + BORE + Cachy Sauce Kernel by CachyOS with other patches and improvements kernel and modules
>arch but mitigations disabled and a bunch of placebo settings changed and a blanket compiler optimizations enabled for all packageswhat could go wrong? in fact if something did go wrong how would the average noob its designed for even know? there are probably so many noobs who switch to linux and pick cachyos and have issues then give up and go back to windows, they would have had a better experience just installing arch themselves
>>106540949>you can probably do your own gaming optimizations on vanilla archYeah this is the first thing I think when someone mentions specific distros like related gaming, productivity or wathever. Not saying it's a bad thing, but doesn't really add anything new, it's hard to understand the hype then, it would essentially mean it's just arch with some pre-installed stuff, no?The kernel part sounds interesting tho, thanks anon, finally someone told me about it
>>106541053it's good intro for newbs, ready to go. myself I just did the wiki gaming improvements on regular arch and am playing like this. didn't try their kernel with the fancy scheduler so have no clue what it brings
>>106540713Not really because SteamOS is immutable.Cachy isn't and neither is Arch.Meanwhile Fedora is immutable (but with less guardrails) And Bazzite is immutableSteam OS is built on arch and only uses it to take advantage of the architecture/community but do it's own thing with lots of guard rails and doesn't feel like arch at all.Cachy feels like REAL arch for gamersBazzite feels like REAL fedora for gamers
>>106539056Overrated placebo distro that's buggier than Arch. It's the new Manjaro
>>106539056Buy an ad
>>106541404Fedora is not immutable, it has some variants that are. Just like arch, it turns out.
idk, i trieded their kernel and got weird intractable half second freezes.
>>106541591Guess you're right then....I'm not crying.... you're cryingSHUT UP! I THOUGHT LONG AND HARD ABOUT THAT METAPHOR
>>106539056It works so no complaints. Staying on Mint tho.
BulldogshitOS. Use Mac.
>>106539056it's sponsored by cdn77 so it only takes me ~30 seconds to download.
>>106540998I thought that was a man in a suit
doesn't worth it lmao.source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtXw9on6qs4&t=16598s>>106541404replace debian with slackware.
It's yet another attempt at "Arch, but this time it's FINALLY GOOD!"Which, again, doesn't account for the actual flaw of any Arch-based distro: Rolling releases are for midwits.
>>106541404steamos is built on arch because arch provides a solid skeleton to build on, better than ubuntu server.
>>106539855I'm curious - who invents these names?>ubuntu>alma linux>cachyos>bazziteIt's like wtf? Red Hat was and even that is "fedora" now.
>>106543988RH was kind of okay at least it has normal words.But if you want an instant deboner, look no further than some random linux distribution.
>>106543988wtf is your point theyre distro names picked by people who started the projects? are you smoking reefer? dude like red hat and fedora are like hats bro give me another puff compadre
>>106543988>Ubuntu Term for being kind to other people>almaSpanish word for soul >CachyosNamed after the Cachy Scheduler>BazziteFedora Linux's Atomic Desktops originally followed a naming scheme based on minerals. Bazzite is a mineral that is known for being strong, lightweight, and is colored blue.
>>106544021You wouldn't understand.
>>106544021>>106543988>Red HatMarc Ewing, co founder of Red Hat, always wore a red Fedora when at Carnegie Mellon. He made Red Hat Linux, and the name comes from that, because people who had computer problems always went looking for the "red hat" dude.
>>106544040You are absolutely right; but I never asked what these monikers mean; they are just stupid sounding.If you had any imagination - imagine this : someone creates a band called Cachyos and expects that to be a household name. Doesn't happen because it's a stupid name. Same goes for all of these other cuck distros.
yet another distro enters the distro wars
>>106544067I pronounce it "CatchyOS" and it just works as a name then. I'm using Catchy btw
>>106544067Mint is ok, except when it's called MintOS. It's still linux, not "OS".
>>106543988>Red Hat>>>/wsg/5969991
>>106544084You forgot you're not in your zoomer discord anymore.
>>106543962this show me the chad based choice is the Chameleon distro and all those custom kernel dsitro doesn't mean shit.
Kurwa Linux would be so much more popular than these others.
>>106544118they are now offering a minimal atomic kde distrohttps://kalpadesktop.org/based on MicroOShttps://get.opensuse.org/microos/
>>106544198That's comical.
>>106539056Never heard of it
