Why is this nobody distro being shilled everywhere now? All you need is Debian.
Install Gentoo.
>>107005812the packages are compiled for cpus from 2013 not pentium 4s
>>107005812PlaceboOS
>>107006031Literally no noticeable (keyword here) difference.
>>107005812Because it takes one or two steps off the user. And that is invaluable to normies. Even if Linux tryhards can't understand it.
>>107006044It adds up. It's like building an NA motor except it's free. Tell me do you run JEDEC timings?
>>107006060Endeavour already did that.
>>107005812It's just Arch without fucking around and with few performance-focused tricks. It's nice, but not groundbreaking.
>>107005812because it just works
>>107005812Distros are not OSs
>>107005812It’s the perfect distro>Arch-based>great for gaming>stable>regular updates >fast performance CachyOS solved Linux, it dominates distowatch for good reason.
>>107005812Gamers are getting into Linux now because of the W11 debacle, and Debian sucks for gaming while CachyOS is great for it. Linux will soon be gamer-dominated
>>107006604this, it is just yet another case where "if /g/ hates it it must be good" being proven true
>>107005812flavor of the month distro
>>107007184Did last month's flavor provide packages optimized for your cpu instruction sets? No? What about August?
>>107006955/g/ hates everything. except windows, they love windows.
wheres cacyos anime mascot?
>>107005812Because it's actually a really nice distro, especially on new hardware.

>>107005812I've been using arch/gentoo and Linux for more years than most of you faggots have been alive.I have gaming rigs that I just cachyos on.It takes 5 minutes to install, which is hilarious for an arch distro, it gives me the exact drivers I want ootb, its actively being maintained, it is faster than endeavour, at least on my machines.I can't think of any reason to not use it, other than some wild conspiracy theory from an anon that feels his way through life without evidence like a woman.tldr; its arch, it installs fast, it runs well on modern hardware with no post install tinkering
Is there any advantage to using arch over cachyos besides the muh bloat schtick?I don't exactly care for saving a few megabytes of ram or storage and it sounds like I'm getting all its advantages with none of the drawbacks
>>107010240ive tried artix manjaro endeavour and now use cachyos. i havent even downloaded a arch iso. Ive tried lots of distros, even failed at lfs and gentoo but not arch. I've even installed debian as my first distro, saw the tty post install, said fuck it and used fedora gnome for a long time before lots of distrohopping. I tried debian in 2016
It just werks, and I dont play battlefield 6 trannies
>>107010649I have a similar cpu, which benchmark would you like to run?
>>107010666Back in Windows 10, I used to play Marvel Rivals. Based on protondb, it looks like it perform just fine.I personally never test it though, haven't got enough time to play
new cachy user here. it just werkz. migrated from w10 LTSC. plasma is comfy.
>>107010749i c ur ip
>>107006038>PlaceboOSI will spread this term all over /g/ now
>>107010795not likely from that image
>>107005812MUH GAMING PERFORMANCE
>>107010857That gnome stutter lol
>>107005812>Gentoo>Arch>TempleOSThese are the only options
>>107005812>why are people doing publicityTo turn their nobody project into a known project.
>>107006262Yeah with worse defaults and fewer DE options.Cachy is just objectively better than Endeavour.
>>107005812>first time Linux user friend installs Cachy with KDE>fonts are fucked up but only in some applications (Discord, Kate)
>>107005812nobody wants to be a tinker tranny. normal people want OOB solutions. this is the reason behind literally who distro rebrands
Because it has decent defaults that take in consideration modern hardware.EndeavourOS is supposed to be practically just a graphical installer for Arch. It adds like 10 packages over it. It's very clean, but mostly, it's just Arch with a different logo. I used it for quite some time without issues and it's honestly good.Manjaro became retarded and went too far into being "its own thing" while ruining people's lives. They DDoS'd the AUR several times and is responsible for multiple claims of "Arch breaking". It's like its retarded cousin.CachyOS is something in between. It doesn't go as far, doesn't break the same. But it does include a few repositories and patched kernels by default, it does make your life easier if you have an nvidia GPU or you want to get games just going without resorting to using an immutable OS like Bazzite. It also sets up snapshots automatically if you choose btrfs (and if you choose Limine as a bootloader, it adds an entry to boot from them) without doing anything. Not too dissimilar from openSUSE. And it has its own small, concise and easy to follow wiki for the sort of stuff it changes from Arch.Unlike other distros you can very easily turn Arch or EndeavourOS into CachyOS as well, they provide a guide for that.
>>107011487see post above, I don't have this problem on Arch
>>107010857I'm not going to pay the Snap toll
Been on it for a while. Good system aside from the shitty printer driver setup cups and first setup with my brother printer was a pain.What is trying to do now is figure out how to get optiscaler to work not just for steam but for epic, gog and pirated games and how I can force fsr4 for my rdna 2 gpu. Windows it's easy. On Linux not so much
My only issue with Cachy (and I think it applies to all arch based distros, because I recall it happening on EOS too) is that I constantly have package downloads stall at times. It doesn't matter how I set up my mirrors, it will happen no matter what mirrors I use. Download many packages really afast and then suddenly 0% and I have to wait, or it'll interrupt the process and throw timeout errors. I'll have to run that update once again.In contrast debian based distros didn't give me this issue (mint/ubuntu were pretty fucking fast) and when I tried Nobara it was really fucking slow to update, but it was consistent.
>>107011518i've had this too a couple of times, thought it was my vpn but i guess not
>>107011563I don't know if it's the onboard NIC, since I believe it's been happening since I had my new build. Which one do you use?
>>107011580Do you have a windows drive?
>rolling release>no rollback featureenjoy the novelty until it breaks I guess
>>107011598Btrfs snapshots?
>>107011586yep but I don't know why that would make any difference
>>107011598>Pick limine bootloader>Choose btrfs on the partitioning section>DoneShit that was hard
>>107011691When you press Shut Down in windows it puts the computer in hibernate which can lead to strange issues. To test it boot windows and hold down shift when clicking on shut down.
>>107011757Oh no, I manually disabled hibernation on windows, there's no fast startup. I always make sure to disable that on any new install.
I've seen people recommend Bazzite over this.Is it because it's immutable or is there anything to it?
>>107006604>distrowatchHaven't heard of that in 20 years
>>107011492that's more of a issue with cachyos than repackaged userfriendly distros as a whole
>>107006604this reply is so embarassing. are you a bot? cupcake recipe?
>>107011772It just doesn't matter. All Linux distros use the same shit. I am pretty sure everything Cachy does is placebo and maybe noticeable in Blender or some shit. Bazzite is good for newcomers since Bazaar with Flathub is just great. Most people do not know what immutable means though and try to copy paste random sudo commands into their terminal. Turns out that won't work. Personally I can not use an immutable os because I want to generate anime porn with GPU acceleration and can not get it to work in any immutable distro.
>>107011473they're the same, you just found a new shiny distro to latch onto>fewer DE optionsthe things you can install later?
>>107005812Cachy is the meme distro of the yearIt will be replaced by another meme distro next year.
NixOS won
I'm using nobara at the moment, it's solid. I don't know how well arch holds up but fedora seems to take abuse well, pushed some emulators and graphics acceleration locking up the system but no errors beyond that.
