Performance optimized repositories - cachyos-aur

Okay, let me explain that:

I used Garuda a long time ago.

Garuda was my next distro after Manjaro, and I’ve met skilled people on this forum. Garuda is also good and more stable than Manjaro. After all I left Garuda and start using Arch Linux.

Me and Garuda Linux in the past - response for micro vs nano.

I also wrote a post about that variant on the Garuda forum. :slight_smile:

This variant of Garuda currently doesn’t exist - my post was from 8 Dec '20 03:24. It’s called Garuda Linux KDE lite now. When I used Garuda, nano was pre-installed, and most distros use or know nano.

Anyway, it’s just a text editor. I can use Garuda and vi, vim, nano, micro, and emacs; everyone has their preferences.

So it’s a little bit odd to write me this:

even installed by default on Garuda. micro is the default text editor.

If you have a package X pre-installed as the default option, does it mean everyone must use that package X?

I know micro, and I tried, but I decided to use nano and sometimes vim. Even if I decided to use Garuda actively, I won’t use micro.
So I can’t understand what I have done badly, is it wrong to have your preferences?

I also sometimes faced bugs or issues when I used GUI way to do or install something. I started preferring the CLI way and using the terminal. I also can’t write a script for GUI. I must know how to do it in the bash script - CLI, bash, terminal, etc.

So I decided to leave Garuda and jump directly to the sea of vanilla Arch Linux.

I left Garuda Linux around one year back, and I am currently staying on Arch Linux and sometimes experimenting with Artix Linux and even fewer GUI distros like Void Linux.

My Motivation for participating in the forum. After all, experiences gained from using Garuda, Manjaro or any other Arch-based distributions lead to the Motivation to show people how they also can learn more about CLI or improve Garuda with some effort.

Nobody knows, when an issue or bug appears in the GUI or when we need to do something impossible through GUI and CLI, the terminal is the only way to do it.

That’s why I wrote some guides on this forum, these guides are quite popular, and they are sometimes linked with another article on this forum.

Configuration for Intel HW:

NVIDIA, this guide surprised me with how much is linked to other articles, sometimes by Garuda moderators like @filo

Motivation for this post about cachyos repo?

Well, I know Garuda is sometimes linked with performance and gaming, and our Arch repo has the goal of maximizing performance much as possible, so I wrote this article.

Last words

I always create guides designed to work with vanilla Arch Linux - I try to be minimalist as possible to maximize compatibility with another Arch-based OS.
I don’t see the reason why commands from Arch Linux shouldn’t work with Garuda Linux, it’s an Arch-based distro.

I hope it doesn’t sound offensive. I was trying to explain.
