I used EndeavorOS in the past which was a successor to AntergOS, both arch based, with gui installer and easy nvidia driver setup, they both worked like a charm without any issues (unlike fucking Manjaro).
It’s interesting to hear how people’s experiences differ so much. I couldn’t get endeavor to work on my laptop (absolutely nothing would launch after the install), but manjaro was the definition of ‘it just works’ for me. I’d love to stop having things break because manjaro holds back updates for a week.
Fedora and Red Hat are innovating image-based operating systems. Universal Blue builds on that work.
It would take effort to port that work to Arch. Arch is also a rolling distro, not updating means not getting security updates. Fedora’s release cycle allows them to get more stability, they don’t have to be using the latest version.
Why would they not just use an Arch base like the real SteamOS does?

i think the effort has already been made, unless i’m misunderstanding what cachyos is
That’s reasonable. Thanks!
