    One or two clicks and it’s all set.

    That’s probably great, but I don’t know what there is to set up. All I’ve ever had to do is install the packages for Steam and Heroic on OpenSuSE or Fedora. I suppose any other system is comparable.

    It seems some distributions have issues with nVidia hardware (I never had trouble, although I’m running AMD for the first time in decades at the moment), maybe that’s one thing those “gaming” distributions address. I don’t really know.

      I’d have to go parse through the script, though I’m certain someone else here already knows, but amongst other packages, proton, wine, steam and video drivers seem to be what it installs. I had to do all that manually on Mint and since it was my first Linux system I set up as a gamer I am sure I have some package versions set differently/incorrectly. Cachy takes the guesswork out of it.

      I am olde and have been building gaming systems for many years. CachyOS is the easiest OS that I’ve ever set up. Am in a game playing within minutes. Even Windows was never so easy.
