It is also first in the Distrowatch rank

I distro hopped to it from Bazzite a couple of months ago, and I could not be happier.

If you try the installer, be careful when selecting multiples DE/WM as the conflicts were not listed anywhere for the installation process.

Picking a single environment and then adding the others later was what worked for me.

Did you notice anything that would be worthwhile switching from EndeavourOS to CachyOS? Not having any problems is nice, but is there an actual reason and do you even notice it in real world usage (I don't count benchmarks)?

    This one is just a media box and also for light gaming, some games could be a bit smoother with just a bit more performance and switching to cachyOS binaries gave it that small bump it needed in most cases. If you don't count benchmarks that are measureable and repeatable then I can offer an annecdote that it just feels better.
