CachyOS is awesome because of what Steam is doing with Proton.
CachyOS and Bazzite are the two hot distros for gaming right now.
CachyOS is a rolling release distro, so get updates, which could break something.
Bazzite is a fixed release, that gets updated occasionally.
But the thing about CachyOS, is that if you set it up per their wiki, it comes with BTRFS snapshots out of the box. If an update borks your system, it's a 5 minute fix to roll back to the last snapshot.
