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.

It looks nice on paper, but I have a very hard time trusting most of the distributions out there. Especially now, with all the security issues reported in the industry. That may sound unfair towards those distributions, but really, can you blame me for my attitude? I mean they have a lot of control of your system and they patch a lot of stuff; even the Kernel. I wonder if their Kernel can be used on other distributions and how it compares to Zen Kernel (I'm on EndeavourOS too, but using Zen Kernel).

I've not looked at different kernels much so that would be very interesting.

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.
