Just stumbled upon this project, seems rather new as my DNS blocked its domain by default for being too new hehe.. Anyone had a chance to try it yet? Its got some hefty promises, like having equally strong privacy features as Librewolf. I'll be giving it ago at least, almost sounds a bit too good to be true...

Definitely very interesting! Thanks for sharing. Was thinking about trying CachyOS too.

This OS is good and I've used it for 6months but I want to switch because it packed all of these theming inside and you cannot really remove it

[-] neonred@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yeah, the themeing is there. But you can easily uninstall it and other core CachyOS-packages, they're just packages after all. (I've done it)

The other way would be to start with Arch and add CachyOS repositories, that way you can also profit from the v3/v4 packages.

That's cool but the CachyOS repo is not the most interesting thing, the pre-optimized desktop is really nice

[-] Sunny@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 months ago

Good to know - thanks. I, too, prefer to customize mine in my own way.

[-] foremanguy92_@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 months ago

Yeah, and it's sad because I didn't find a distro that is really welled tweaked without theming (speaking of CachyOS and Garuda mainly), they are great as their using all the best optimizations in terms of performance but they add this theming...

[-] Sunny@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah, so far my favourite distro for this is Bazzite, still allowed a lot of customization and is well optimised for gaming.

[-] foremanguy92_@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

It's a good distro, but seems to be too gaming focused, new techs for gaming that are not really useful

[-] quarterlife@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 2 months ago

For that, check out Bluefin or Aurora. They're all under the same umbrella as Bazzite, but with a user/developer focus instead of a gaming focus.

Can’t you just not select the themes during the install process of cschyOS?

[-] foremanguy92_@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

You can unselected testing etc... But cannot with all of the stuff like the fish shell, and so on. So you need to manually remove all this, and this is not good at all

[-] aStonedSanta@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

For some reason I recall being able to choose that during install. I’ll fuck around with the installer later to check. But I agree I use don’t use fish either and had to figure out how to swap over to zsh. It was pretty painless though.
