Nice one, Fedora I've been keen to check out. it seems similar to SUSE albeit with a different package manager and no Yast. I respect a quality controlled rolling release.
How's cachyOS? I'm very wary of the AUR/Arch generally. There must be so many unmaintained packages on there.
Yast is great but I honestly don't find it all that useful nowadays. Feels to me like most of that configuration can be done through KDE anyway. Still, great piece of software, might just not fit my current needs.
CachyOS, Manjaro and endeavour OS are all Arch. The main selling point for cachy is the ease of use when installing "stuff for gaming" e.g. gfx drivers and their custom compiled kernels and software packages (basically just other builds of packages on the Arch repo) have been optimized for newer generations of CPUs. Light weight, heavily optimized, customizable. Lots of small optimizations here and there. You can do the same on Arch but I don't want to bother. I know what do to and how to, but been there done that.
Yeah TBH Yast is more of a GUI for accessing the backend settings when I can't be bothered looking up cli commands, but nice to have.
Ah, CachyOS being gaming oriented makes sense. My dream rig is a SteamOS 9070XT build so I can have quick resume on the PC. I thought Bazzite could do that game mode setting, so was considering that as the eventual next PC.
