I like CachyOS and it’s my go to if I want to use Arch. Everytime I install Arch I always forget something, always. so then it’s trying to remember what I did the last time to get something to work correctly. With CachyOS it’s just good to go for me. and they’ve really improved the install process and cut out A LOT of bloat. Before it would take forever to install Cachy but now it’s quick and the only thing I really have to remove when it’s done is alacritty and firefox. Paired with KDE it’s smooth sailing and great performance.
Yes, I think it may have cured my distro hopping. I was on Fedora KDE the longest besides Cachy, but there’s a lot of little things that I like better.
The number of times I have said this… The urge to hop will return. I recommend investing in a cheap secondary piece of hardware, like an older used Lenovo Thinkpad.

You can choose to install Firefox or not in the setup. It has its own checkbox in the package list.

I’ve installed arch a couple times. I think it’s helpful do a few times at least so you know how things work.
Now I just use endeavoros though.
It is a good educational experience, especially if you want to do sysadmin adjacent stuff.
