From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have been looking around and found a few new Distros which I plan to test and perhaps use. These are all Arch based.

Exodia (dwm, bspwm) Arch Distro: https://exodia-os.github.io/exodia-website/?ref=news.itsfoss.com

CachyOS (gnome, kde) Arch Distro: https://cachyos.org/

XeroLinux (Stable base Arch): https://xerolinux.xyz/

optimized packages to improve performance

Press X to doubt

You're doubting that compiler optimizations improve performance? Building exclusively for modern CPUs 100% has a performance increase.

How big is the increase?
