systemd.

I do not want any component imposed. Init-freedom.

(Artix, btw).

Lazy! CachyOS sets up system snapshots and I could one click install gaming related packages. It's not much really, I could install regular Arch instead but meh.

Users of Arch-based distros, do you need help with Gentoo? I won't tell, I promise!

I wanted a rolling release distro, but not a bare bones distro that I have to build from scratch myself.

Artix, because Arch mandates systemd and I don't want systemd.

I run EndeavourOS on my wife's laptop because it was easy to install.

Sorta first time Linux user, picked CachyOS because it came with friendly installer and startup install guide/automation. Unlike last time i tried Linux to run some python project on the GPU I never managed to install CUDA.

CachyOS promised out of box support, wine/proton directly, and the selection of default tools got me far along the Windows migration. So far no issues even compiling programs that need CUDA drivers and more. Haven't really gamed a lot, but this OS is supposed to be good for that.

Endeavor is just arch with a graphical installer takes 5 minst to install comes with a script to install nvidia drivers. I am far far from a nebie but it is just convenient. Also use cachy is repos which are faster

ArtiX because I don’t want age verification systemd on my computer.

I’ve installed arch manually a few times. The last time I did it I had issues with my nvidia gpu and plasma glitching out drawing weird lines on the screen. I got tired of trying to fix it and went back to windows for a while. Figured I’d try crunchyos to see if their setup resolved that and it did. And now that it’s installed there’s no reason to uninstall.

lazy + unique features

like someone just fixed the isp4 webcam for my zbook, it's not even in the mainline kernel yet but at somepoint cachy's kernel started working perfectly with my webcam where before I had to build my own

i used to use manjaro because i was scared of the text based installer for Arch. Also i liked the shade of green

Pretty much sums up to being lazy and not wanting to fiddle with configs, we’re perfectly fine with KDE. Plus it’s a great way to familiar ourselves with since our so uses the same distros (Cachy)

Other (bigger reason) is that it’s a no fuss arch experience. Even get a little button to update everything for you, it’s pretty nice since we just need the thing to work cuz it’s also the save pc we use for work.

I use CachyOS because I'm lazy, I did spend some time tinkering with it to make it closer to Arch

I will probably migrate to a pure Arch install or gentoo next when I feel like it

Using Garuda Linux.

I'm a lazy newb who enjoys QOL features and Gardua has a bunch of those. For instance - suggests which gaming apps to install during the initial set up, and comes with a "Garuda Toolbox" which helps take care of OS maintenance.

im lazy :D

I am indeed lazy lol

I use endeavourOS. If im getting the same OS but with a more mindless installation process and decent wallpapers, why not?

What for? Quality over quality? It works fine. I doubt that the alternative would be any better. Plus, it will take a lot of time, many as myself don't have

I don't want SystemD.
