🚀 CachyOS is a performance-optimized Arch Linux distribution with CPU-specific package builds, advanced kernel scheduling, and an effortless installation — delivering measurable speed gains without sacrificing simplicity.
The argument is that “Oh, Windows updates once a month and you hate it? Well, CachyOS has several updates every day which makes it much worse”.
But the real issue with Windows updates is how distruptive, forced, slow, and broken they are. Microsoft gives you some freedom to choose when to update, but sooner or later it’ll say “Oh you’re doing something important? Nope, time to restart right now” if you delay it too long.
I actually update my CachyOS system far more often than I did Windows, but I am in full control of it. But the truth is, while I would recommend people on CachyOS or any rolling release distro to update at least every 1-2 weeks, you can easily go a couple of months without doing so.
Yeah I update once a month max, and it’s like 5 minutes… a windows update I did on my work computer the other day was an hour and a half of unusable computer.
Windows is just another level of horrible updates. CachyOS might have lots of updates, but you don’t have to do them and they’re also a hundred times faster AND you can use your computer while the update happens. It’s just nothing alike.
Huh? They’re a thousand times better in Cachy. Why wouldn’t anyone like them if they hated windows updates?
