I enjoyed your coverage of CachyOS so much I downloaded an ISO for my Ventoy collection. Seems like a good stable system so I will have to test it out on a spare PC see how it compares to ElementaryOS for my spouse. She really likes ElementaryOS so far but I am always open to options. Great work on bringing Linux to the masses!

Interesting that the small “country” that had an issue with an illegal ham license. Did they say which foreign nation the “spy” was from? Just curious…
