    CachyOS has been flawless on my S/O’s desktop. From an easy install to plenty of documentation available, I couldn’t have asked for much more. During install, there’s an entire step dedicated to checking a box if you want to play games. (To enable non-free drivers).

    I don’t think it was a poor choice.

      Flawless wouldn’t require any documentation.

        There are instructions on your McDonalds coffee that say, “This coffee is hot.”

        You might feel as though no documentation is necessary here, but clearly it was a critical miss for someone.

        Everything requires some documentation.
