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.

I am also an EOS fan but I just took one machine and added the Cachy repos to it. Like EOS, it looks like it mostly just uses the Arch repos although, unlike EOS, I guess they offer optimized versions of some packages.
So, the repo hierarchy I have now is EOS, then Cachy, then Arch.
The repo install added a new keyring and upgraded pacman itself.
After a pacman -Syu, all it did was update binutils, Python, neofetch, zstd, kwin, and Xorg-Xwayland.
Neofetch still reports EOS.
I have not installed the Cachy kernel yet or tried their Firefox fork.
It seems like a fairly painless addition. Time will tell.
That’s a good way of trying other distros that are based on arch.
