I’m scared of Arch and cachyOS was the easiest OS install and config I’ve probably ever done. Maybe OSX was easier, but that’s it. It’s sooooo good, and I had zero issues getting everything working perfectly.

Fedora had three big issues and many small. Fedora was actually the worst to get going. My hardcore difficult use cases include playing a video file from my NAS, seeing the music library on there, changing the desktop theme without it going crazy, and not having the aux jack send a huge horrible pop noise to whatever is plugged in when the sound device constantly goes to low power mode.

Both cachy and fedora on the same exact model of machine, both at the same time (two machines, hardware is perfect, also windows 10 LTSC IoT dual boots to them both which worked… as well as windows works I suppose, good enough)
