Why did it take so long to finally solve Linux? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it finally happened, but it's been decades in the making.
shit nophono cares fan about above me
>>107039115what did placebo os solve exactly?
>>107039129what u mean
>>107039115They should've just made a script for Arch and be done with it. Why waste the time and resources into making distro bloat? Make it easily accessible to normies on the base distro. If your tool doesn't work, you fix it. You don't make a whole new redundant tool.
>>107039129It made Arch run much better, more stable and it's great for gaming. Switch to CachyOS and you'll be amazed.
>>107039115
>>107039168
>>107039129it's made with the intent of being used on modern hardware instead of fucking core 2 duos
>>107039174core 2 duos are fairly modern cpus and can have up to SSE4.2the generic builds target SSE2 hardware, correct me if I'm wrong
>>107039168take a look at the captcha verification of the website you're posting on>muh passeven more cucked
>>107039115Gentoo fixed it a long time ago, Cachy is just the normie version of march=native.
>>107039577Who the fuck wants to sit there rewriting terminal commands for an hour?
>>107039595Is the cloudflare in the room with us right now?
>>107039306>core 2 duos are fairly modern cpus/b/ait used to be believable
>>107039612It's comfy... also it's only during setup... you just save your make.conf, dotfiles, env, etc after it works.
>>107039115>Does not run on VM (the installation guide even specifically warns against not running it on bare metal)>Does not perform expected behavior for some software, requiring odd troubleshootingEvery distro is made for a usecase, the usecase for CachyOS is Reddit ricing that only uses browsers and proton-ge.Not a bad usecase, since most people break their install doing this, but still more specialized than Arch.
>>107039115>easily impressionable fa/g/got gets tricked into installing yet another distro>he immediately makes a thread on /g/ on how good it is to validate his choicemany such cases
>>107039665It's still enough for a "basic usage" machine, browsing, office, etc. -- if you don't use stupid bloated software.
>>107039665Just because you weren't born yet doesn't make it not modern, zoomerkin.
why is this so popular now? literally the jeetiest distro I ever had the misfortune to install, its like it almost smells of curry. The aesthetics are unmistakable, whoever did this is indian
>>107039665intel core ultra i9 285k has only 2 more instruction sets
>>107039115you always gotta wait for the germans to do it right
>>107039115I've used it. It's alright. Nothing you couldn't get on plain Arch yourself.I guess it's fine for noobs as first-Arch-distro. My only complain is: Why the fucking shitty name?
>>107039115>can't even open an ISO file
>>107040503>why is this so popular now?It's Arch pre-configured for gamers. It's considered the best gaming distro for desktop, and it came just in time for W10 EoL
I'm sticking with Mint, thanks
>>107041176It is Arch pre-configured for people who go Reddit for dotfiles and bash scripts after installing Arch as babbie's first Linux, whereupon they end up with a broken mess three months in that they don't know how to fix.The average person is really better off just using Arch to get more familiar with the base distro and maybe installing CachyOS packages after the fact, which is made easy with the AUR and the ability to just add CachyOS repositories to pacman.The marginal gains from the custom tweaks will mostly be unnoticeable to the average user.
>>107041215Mint is way too outdated. Switch to CachyOS, you won't regret it.
buy an ad
>>107041411mesa is on version 25.2.5 in Arch, 25.2.3 in Mint.
nah bazzite is better
>>107041422it's on 25.0.7 according to my scrying cube my apologies
>>107041422>it's already outdatedSad! Switch to CachyOS and you'll stay updated
Everyone is picking openbox cause its riced.
>>107039115How is this "solving" Linux and what was there to solve that cachy did? Why are you such an impressionable simpleton?
>>107041435what advantages does that have over just using cachy repos on arch
Was this designed by a 13 year old?
>>107041478Is that cinnamon or xfce
>>107041478It was designed for gamers, by gamers.
>>107041526you could have just said "yes"
>>107041579You could have just not made a boomer ahh reply but here we are
>>107041604stop impersonating us unc
>>107041612how many gray hairs you up to?
What the fuck is wrong with people using whatever the fuck they want or like? You people are a bunch of autist weirdos.
>>107041526ok, now will the shills stop crying about linux now that they have their gayman OS, right?
My huge ego says that anybody using other distro than the one I'm using is an inferior human being.
>>107041369The average person is too stupid to deal with arch's shit and they get rewarded with less stabilityBesides everyone would just do archinstall regardless Normies don't give a shit about saving a gigabyte of space and megabytes of ram usageI installed bazzite on my old craptop and I legitimately never used the terminal, you do everything through guis and get your shit through bazaar which is preinstalled
>>107039174>>107039162So it's solved nothing new that other modern distros haven't already done.
>>107042051It's optimised around the toughest workload you're realistically going to give your pc on a daily basis while not really losing anything and giving it more stability over the basic arch buildyou may not like your sekrit club getting bigger but fundamentally you don't lose anything if the procedure gets easier while you still have your path less traveled
>>107039612autists
>>107039162How?
>>107039115>SAAAR! CACHYOS SOLVED LINUX SAAAAR! USE CACHYOS SAAAAAAAAAR!
>>107042351cachyos was made by germans though?
>>107039115this PlaceboOS shilling is so unnatural these last few weeks, it's so tiring to see.
>>107042358There are two (2) German names here, keep telling yourself that.
>>107039115>Le new glowie distroI will stick with the true germanic-poo arch distro that has years of history, good community, has snapper etc.Also endeavouros
