The signature and the random updates issues can be solved (partially) by using the izzyondroid repo. A lot of the applications on fdroid are on it. It compiles from sources, doesn’t change signatures, and fetch updates on a daily basis.

It doesn’t solve all the issues, but it can help

Couldn’t agree more on that. Unfortunately, I work in a place where it’s definitively not the way of thinking. We (we, being the factory in general, I’m not an executive, Those decisions are way above my responsibilities ) made way worst decision than that to ruin customer relationship since that…

Where I work, customers used to ask us for fuses. We didn’t want to sell them as they cost nothing, and it bothered us to have stocks of this… So, the decision was made to put a crazy high price on it (like 100 times the price of a fuse )… Some customers still ask to buy fuses from us …

Apple probably doesn’t want to sell spare parts(to discourage people to repair their devices, or another reason), but they may be forced to do it, so they put crazy prices on it.

A dick move, but "hey, as long as it works ! "

7 months distro hopping sober here ! All thanks to CachyOS.

The installation is seamless thanks to calamares, there are some graphic tools that can help for beginners on arch. Their kernel might be one of the most optimised one to have a smooth experience while gaming. I do not play ressources hungry games, so I can not really tell.

After setting snapshots, I decided to experience it totally blind folded, just to see how long I can last on it. I update the system around 2 times a week, never read any changelog, just like any of the other distro I used… And for now, I’ve never had any trouble.

My system seems to be way smoother and more responsive than with fedora or tumbleweed.

I use my computer mostly for steam, heroic, librewolf and LibreOffice.
