CachyOS vs other gaming distros?

Hi,

  1. Partially answered here: What ensures that Cachyos will continue as a project, and what is the roadmap? - #2 by ptr1337
    the CachyOS Team is bigger then most other gaming distros like “Nobara” and “Garuda”, also. Be aware, that CachyOS is not a “Gaming” Distro. We care a bit about it, and also offer customized protons, easy installation of all packages, but its not our focus.
  2. I do not want to blame users - but often if anything “heavy” breaks this was and is user introduced. Of course you are contributing at testing newer releases then others, but with that you are also helping the Open Source Community. There can regressions come in upstream packages, but these commonly get quite fast fixed.
  3. Actually, the Graphics Translation layer at Proton/wine is the most bottleneck in terms of optimizing. Native Games, like CS2 paired with Steam Native you see bigger uplifts, windows games it is lower.
