i wouldn’t consider cachy as arch made easy at all.
it’s a distro i can’t recommend over bazzite for newbies because you need to somewhat know what you are doing.

otoh, I migrated to cachy from Windows just over a year ago, and haven’t really encountered any friction whatsoever despite my only prior Linux experience being installing Mint on an old laptop (which was a miserable endeavor, but that was entirely due to the sorry state of the laptop). I’m probably a lot more willing to tinker than the average non-technical user, but it can be fine for newbies if they’re willing to learn

When i was running bazzite, I was running more apps through arch distroboxes than flatpaks, and many things i wanted to install were just straight up impossible immutably, so i switched to arch and turns out, you want something, it’s on the repo or AUR and just works.
