For me, at least. Finally moved my desktop off Windows 10 and on to CachyOS. Things just… work. Finding applications to install via AUR is easy, gaming is great. The only thing I’m missing is Fusion360 but I didn’t use it too much to begin with. Happy to be Microsoft-free. Several friends have switched off of Windows as well which is great to see. I’ve really been enjoying Arch (btw) I have CachyOS on my laptop and also in a VM which is nice to have the same desktop experience on all my devices. Looking forward to the road ahead!
I’m currently evaluating freecad Vs solidedge Vs solidworks. The fact freecad work on Linux might make it the default winner. I’m trying to avoid vendor lock in, I don’t mind paying for software, however the other options would lock me in to windows. And I’m not prepared to run paid for software in wine
