The best feature they’ve kept out is the subscription you have to pay to cancel.

Fair point, but as long as you’re not doing anything super illegal it should be okay. I only use the VPN service to torrent movies and tv shows.

But it does come with a free tier of proton vpn. Great if you don’t need to use a vpn too often but need one in a pinch.

I’m not sure. It was strange that plasma would crash and not boot even after reinstalling it. I think there may have been some conflicts I wasn’t aware of. Either way, I have had no issues with things running properly on Cachy.

I originally used EndeavourOS with hyprland and I tried to us kdenlive, but it would never start. I then tried to install kde-plasma, but it would never boot into the plasma DE. I went and installed kubuntu to use the kde apps, but things just work better for me on arch, like Bluetooth connectivity. So I decided to switch back to arch through Cachy.

CachyOS is awesome. I just switched a few months ago after the praises from SomeOrdinaryGamer. I also wanted to use hyprland again after using plasma for sometime. It’s amazing that Cachy lets me use the hyprland DE, but also has libraries to let me run kde software without the need for plasma.

Gnome would be good for me as a tablet Desktop Environment, but for desktop I’m hyped up on hyprland.

I use arch btw.

Hey man. The big Hootie burger is good. Sometimes a man just wants a big Hootie.

Also, Russia is bruised pretty good from the Ukraine war. I doubt they could fight two fronts.

There will be with the nuclear winter.
