But now it's cachyos for me going forward. Never again will I install windows.

    I've used it recently. The ui is still snappier on the original machine than w11 today on a new one.

    I'd be interested knowing why it got so bad. Is it for lack of time or focus on optimization? Is there a reason lazy loading isn't used? Why is the tooling so convoluted, by choice or as a victim of ever growing complexity?
