From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Thoughts on CachyOS? (lemdro.id)

I've been seeing a lot of talk about CachyOS recently. Has anyone here tried it? It seems interesting and I might give it a go (currently on EndeavourOS) on a spare drive in my PC.

First thing I did was look at a proper benchmark: https://www.phoronix.com/review/cachyos-linux-perf/1

With the exception of the gaming benchmarks coming out well on CachyOS, in many of the workloads CachyOS didn't demonstrate any measurably better performance over fellow Arch Linux derivative EndeavourOS.

So it's great for gamers who want to squeeze extra performance from their hardware.

That's good to know. Not worth a reinstall for me then.
