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.

Is anyone aware of a guide or step by step process for this? I have been searching but am lowkey Linux stupid with a lot of things and can’t seem to find a guide for cachy. I imagine any old arch guide will do also?

CachyOS is arch based, which allows you to use the holy ArchWiki. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE Is what you're looking for. Good luck!

Thank you. This is what I ended up using. Swapped to SDDM. Then removed gnome. Things seem to be good. Gnome-desktop and gnome-desktop-common appear stuck due to lutris but I’ll figure that out later

Glad it worked! And what do you mean stuck? As in that you can't remove them?

Yeah. Gives an error. But they were not auto removed when removing gnome or gnome-essentials so they might be required.
