CachyOS, a Linux distribution based on Arch Linux, has recently received a significant upgrade, enhancing its performance and user experience. Known for its speed and diverse desktop options, CachyOS is becoming more user-friendly with each iteration.
The standout feature of the latest update is the transition from the traditional X11 windowing system to the more modern Wayland. This change brings noticeable performance improvements, with the Wayland version operating faster than its predecessor. Users can expect an even more responsive experience, especially when combined with the KDE Plasma desktop environment.
Additionally, CachyOS replaces the default KDE Plasma login manager, SDDM, with Limine, a more configurable and modern alternative that allows for extensive theming options. Though the KDE Plasma version retains the Plasma Login Manager for user familiarity, the switch is welcomed by many users.
During installation, CachyOS offers a choice among 18 different desktop environments, catering to a variety of user preferences.
CachyOS continues to impress as it simplifies the experience of using Arch Linux, providing a platform that not only outperforms both MacOS and Windows but also makes it accessible for users with less experience in Linux. However, there are still areas for improvement, particularly regarding the GUI for Pamac, the package manager front end.
Overall, CachyOS stands out as a fast and efficient distribution, especially suitable for those transitioning from other operating systems or using older hardware.
