Small sample set aside, the performance differences here are much bigger than I've seen in previous linux comparisons. Something has to be off right? Curious if anyone is able to reproduce these results.

I for one, would not suggest a Windows user to go straight to Arch. An Arch derivative, maybe.

    That's why they said they would recommend CachyOS. ;)

    I did however go from Windows to Arch. It wasn't a bad experience, and using command line isn't a big deal (to me at least.) But I am not the average Windows user. (Background in IT, for over a decade now. And I enjoy this stuff.)

    So mileage may vary.

    CachyOS is nice, I have used it; and I quite like it. I still use vanilla Arch for my machines outside of my steam deck.

    I personally know 3 people that have switched from lifelong windows to Cachy as their first linux experience and have had minimal issues. None beyond anything you would have on other distros. Im not using it myself, but i know it does what its supposed to, it just works...
