Switching to CachyOS, attempt #2
I installed CachyOS on my main gaming computer again last night, and wow!
I last installed it in December, and found it lacking some things I really wanted. But it has it come a long way! The new Shelly GUI package manager is great. It seems like installing Flatpaks and Appimages is much more straightforward now. Somebody has created a sunshine fork that creates virtual desktops for streaming. It seems like a lot of my complaints were fixed this year.
