It is also first in the Distrowatch rank

I distro hopped to it from Bazzite a couple of months ago, and I could not be happier.
If you try the installer, be careful when selecting multiples DE/WM as the conflicts were not listed anywhere for the installation process.
Picking a single environment and then adding the others later was what worked for me.
What do you prefer about Catchy over Bazzite. I’m currently using Bazzite but not in love with it. I mean it’s just an OS that works for my gaming and browsing.
I game, browse, and do audio production. Between all these things, I’ve had the least issues with Cachy. In fact, everything’s been shockingly easy.
The flexibility of Cachy has been great too. Very customisable if you want it to be and lots of DEs to choose from, so really it’s can be setup exactly how you want it. This is something I like in most things, a “do it once; do it right” or “set and forget” setup. I’ve also had the best performance from Cachy overall, but when you’re comparing that against something like Bazzite, the victor could literally just come down to the hardware, they’re so close.
