Pure arch is fine, don’t let internet idiots scare you. Just archinstall it, you don’t have to do a manual install. I reckon have a crack at a manual install for learning purposes if your curious.

I had a look at cachy in a VM it seems very similar to me. I used that Shelly gui thing I kind of like it but every now and then I like to manually install the vulnerabilities directly from AUR and npm.

Personally Im still at none, but I haven’t seen anyone else’s numbers.

What is this comment supposed to mean old mate deserved it?

What other apps are in the UwU stack?

Do you have to login all the time? I run mint on my TV on a mini pc and it’s fine but having to login is a pita. I tried to make it login less but it didn’t like it and I think it broke some things.

Sata is 6gb/s at its fastest which is what most hdds connect with. Your nvme depending on pcie version and then even your usb port speed all matter. I have a pcie5 nvme my mobo supports the usb c type gen 69420 street fighter alpha 3 which tops out at 40gb/s I think. I also bought the fastest Kingston traveller usb stick I could. It’s pretty fast. What I’ve found is the diff between pcie5 and 4 is really not noticeable to me. Nice to have but I think I should have bought a bigger pcie 4 than a 1tb 5 nvme.

How is it on raspbian? Would it run on a pi zero 2w? I’ll try it when I get home tonight.
