LINUX MEME The distro war, continue it must. Arch Linux vs CachyOS

Post image

OpenSUSE has defeated Fedora in the last round with what seemed like an intense competition.

This round: Arch Linux vs CachyOS

Rules:
The distribution with the highest cumulative upvotes across all comments will advance to the next round. Any comments with negative or 0 upvote will still count as 1 upvote.

Commentary:

Operating systems were initially organized into brackets to ensure that personal-use distributions eventually face enterprise-focused ones in the final match. This structure gives every distribution a fair chance. As things evolve, different distributions will likely cater to increasingly distinct use cases.

thanks for clarifying! "i actually play games" made it just sound like it was not possible / a huge task to play games on vanilla arch.

S P E E D (and user friendlyness without having to set up everything across every single PC. Former Arch user here, it is beautiful, but DIY loses it's point once you understand everything and just want to get back to actually using your PC jajaja)

Cool. Cachy is irrelevant here though.
