    Me linux distro is not the best. “The best” varies from person to person and also in accord to different positions in time.

    CachyOS with NiriWM. Cachy is Arch with none of the install drama. The performance tuning makes it blazing fast on older hardware. Installs with no bloat.

    Niri is superior to Hyprland in my opinion because it’s a scrolling tiling WM that is super intuitive and fast.

    For server workloads, however, not much beats pure Debian. It’s stable, well supported, and has a huge package library.

      I run CachyOS on my PC and Debian (12/13) on my servers. Everything you say is dead on.

      Perfect set up for me.

    But seriously though, Arch all the way, because it teaches me about Linux and computers, because I can customize all the packages at OS install (without the need for lengthy compiling like Gentoo) and because my Steam games work flawlessly on it.

      FYI, Gentoo has official binhost now, so emerge does not have to compile the package for you any more. But you still can, if you want. Like if you want to choose different useflags, use saved configs, apply patches, etc.
