I’d like to note that I had no issues with installing wine like I would on regular arch, excepting the fact that it’s a custom version that runs a bit faster. Personally I don’t use samba but the cachy devs recently published an automated tool for samba that was reviewed in distrowatch’s article that doesn’t even require user intervention. Google chrome is a basic AUR package that while not officially supported (nothing directly from google really is, and for good reason) can be installed very easily with paru, which ships with cachy by default.

Wouldn’t surprise me. There are no lengths those well-established corporations wouldn’t go to to maintain their monopoly.

One of the biggest issues with Linux has always been fragmentation. With a bajillion different distros to choose from it makes it harder for any centralized development to crush long existing problems. A lot of talented devs out there, but too many of them are scattered.

Since CachyOS is such a young distro, only 2-1/2 years old, who knows how long it will last? Here today, gone tomorrow. Without corporate backing (Red Hat/Fedora, openSUSE, Ubuntu, etc.) or a huge base of users who contribute to the distro’s existence and development (Linux Mint), most small projects will eventually flounder. Time will tell. Stick with a distro which has stood the test of time – 10-20 years.

Distrowatch’s recent review of CachyOS was not all hearts and flowers. Prove it to yourself!

Most images of Tux are nudes

Dear condescending.

100% means all.

100% less means 0.

If in doubt try to google “what does 100percent less mean”. It’s really basic maths.

I found out my touchscreen laptop loves TUXEDO betrer than Mint. AUR is a security disaster waiting to happen. Anyone can really inspect what is being installed and who the author/approver/reviewer is? I really doubt. I really do not understsd why Arch did not tighten security betrer and automate issues resolution during updates.

nudes?? where???

I love how condescending you were while being completely wrong.

“130% LESS”.
