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.

I'm not sure. It was strange that plasma would crash and not boot even after reinstalling it. I think there may have been some conflicts I wasn't aware of. Either way, I have had no issues with things running properly on Cachy.
