With how good CachyOS and EndeavourOS are these days, is there any point in using pure Arch other than to be a hipster?
>>110275064it's good that it exists and there are use cases but Endeavour is the way to go for anyone who is just looking for a good desktop os
despite using kde they shit it up with gtk shit ass applications TGDTGG
>>110276600looks buttfuck ugly on KDE I agree
because i want to pick the programs and configuration and not someone else?
>>110275064If you don't know how to set up Arch btw, and Grub or smth breaks on you, you won't know what to do. Many such cases. Sad!If you do know how to set up Arch btw, sure, go ahead and use a downstream distro if you feel like it.
>>110277628>grub breaking is a regular occurrence on arch kek
>>110277584you can do minimal install of arch and switch to cachyos's repos
>>110277628The annual GRUB breakage is a good learning experience for users.
>>110275064the oppositewith Arch having archinstall script I don't really see use-case for its derivatives, the only case is for Cachy since they compile their own kernel, have optimized packages repository, and have thir own set of gui management softwares, but again you can just install all of those on regular Arch anyway
>>110276406endeavour will be the next antergos
>>110275064Fedora 43/44 still haven't built 7.3 kernel.
>>110280171encrypted boot is a pain in the ass to do manually
