CachyOS Keeps Spreading and Takes Second Place Among Linux Distros

I'm just sitting here running Debian, watching distros come and go.

In twenty years, I'll just be sitting here running Debian, watching distros come and go.

(Twenty years ago, I was actually running Debian, watching distros come and go, although I had a dalliance with Gentoo, don't tell Deb or Ian.)

lagniappe•4mo ago
Ian died in 2015.
Citizen8396•4mo ago
Well, I guess he won't mind then.
ekianjo•4mo ago
> In twenty years, I'll just be sitting here running Debian, watching distros come and go.

That's pretty much what you see in the chart in the article. Debian share remains untouched over time. Not affected by trends.

bjoli•4mo ago
I was like you. Now I am on the immutable train. I really do think that is the future. I was on opensuse from 10.0, but and recently ended up on aeon which I find probably the most excitingly boring distro I have ever used apart from Debian.

I am not looking elsewhere since I realized can't stand gnome, but the idea of aeon is probably the most solid I have ever used, at least for desktop use.

I haven't really decided where to go now except for away from gnome, but Bazzite looks promising, and maybe the new KDE Linux ("project banana") in some time.

type0•4mo ago
have you tried Kalpa? kalpadesktop.org

it should be like Aeon but with KDE

bjoli•4mo ago
When it is out of alpha, I am sure I will try it. I like opensuse, and would like to stay there if I can.
panick21_•4mo ago
I feel like that just means you run very old software. If that's fine with you then that's a good solution. But I rather actually get software updates in a reasonable time.
ekianjo•4mo ago
Debian is not just Debian stable. There is testing and unstable that have much more recent packages. And even on stable you can get by with Flatpak for a lot of things.
panick21_•4mo ago
Ok, then that removes the major reason for using Debian in the first place and you end up with something less stable.
ekianjo•4mo ago
That's just in the name but in practice it's not like things break every other day
scuff3d•4mo ago
I was using Debian for a while but the outdated packages were driving me nuts.
piperswe•4mo ago
If you want rolling release, you can just use Debian Testing or Unstable
ramon156•4mo ago
I don't want to run an "unstable" distro. These outdated packages aren't acceptable.

That said, just use flatpak

scuff3d•4mo ago
Yeah, I'm not gonna install the Zig compiler or NeoVim with a Flatpak.
piperswe•4mo ago
What's the difference between a rolling release distro and Debian testing?
scuff3d•4mo ago
There's a difference between a rolling release and an unstable version.
saubeidl•4mo ago
I like Arch-based distros that make setting it up a bit less of a chore, so on my most recent setup I gave CachyOS a try.

It wasn't for me. Too many pre-written config files that make tools work quite differently from their default state. It had a bit of a "script-kiddy" feel to it IMO.

I'll go with EndeavourOS again next time - that one strikes a good balance between not making you work too hard for a running system and preconfiguring everything in a way you might not agree with.

scuff3d•4mo ago
It's funny you say that, because I'm trying out CachyOS with Niri right now, and the config they provide was almost exactly what I would have setup myself, so I only had to make a few tweaks.
karmakaze•4mo ago
Note that the chart shown has the title "Evolution of Linux Distributions Used for Gaming".
pjmlp•4mo ago
> I don’t remember any other distro out there making so many DE available with such a nice and easy to understand UI.

I do remember many attempts since Mandrake came to be, and many others that I lost track of.

robinhood•4mo ago
Misleading title. "Among Linux Distros used to mostly play games".
sandreas•4mo ago
CachyOS has a decent kernel with ZFS integrated. So for everyone using Arch - you can also use ONLY the kernel without the other changes, which makes the general experience a bit quicker, battery lasting a bit longer and if you're using zfs-dkms, you can remove it, if you're experienced enough.
