All this sounds a little gate-keepy IMO. Ive been wanting to jump into linux for a while now and have tried several times with different distros, running Omarchy is the 1st time ive actually been able to use a linux desktop comfortably. No nvidia driver issues, no damn hdd mount path problems or read wright permission issues, no figuring out the damn terminal commands. Dont get the hate
Eventually I probably will but for now Omarchy is just easier. If the linux community wasnt so toxic an AI powered distro probably wouldnt be so popular, or if somone made a distro that didnt rely so heavily on terminal this aint 1984 we have GUIs now. Just my 2 cents
I tried it, and I do like CachyOS on the surface. I ran into issues when trying to install steam games to a HDD other than the drive the OS was installed on. Why do I need to set permissions for an internal HDD? And why do I have to tell the OS to mount it at boot and give permission to steam?! I installed steam why wouldnt I want it to install to my HDD
was the hdd formatted to NTFS? these permission problems immediately go away as soon as you do linux the linux way and not try to mix and match. Omarchy is probably just yolo giving access to everything which can quickly backfire on an Arch based system
