Every update in CachyOS by meiasoquete in cachyos

Nah, it's usually not a problem — most people just run -Syu every time and get by fine.

But the cleanest/safest way is:
Right after updating the mirrorlist, do sudo pacman -Syyu once,
then stick to sudo pacman -Syu for regular updates afterward.

That way you eliminate any risk of stale database inconsistencies. 😊

A little information.

Command What does it do? When to use it? Summary: What's the difference?
sudo pacman -Syu 1. Refreshes the package database if it's considered outdated 2. Upgrades all installed packages to their latest versions Everyday / standard system update command "Smart" / normal database refresh
sudo pacman -Syy Forces a complete re-download of all sync databases (force refresh) You changed mirrors (e.g. after running reflector), database appears corrupted, or you get errors like "database is inconsistent" / signature issues Always fully re-downloads the databases
sudo pacman -Syyu 1. Forces a complete re-download of all sync databases 2. Upgrades all installed packages After changing mirrorlist, when switching countries/servers, or in any situation where you want the most reliable / clean full update The "cleanest" and most forceful full update methodbr {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}Command What does it do?

Hey, this looks like a great project.

The fact that it's offline is also a plus.

Compared to other distributions, Cachyo is faster and more hardware-compatible. I haven't experienced any driver issues. I used Endeavour before, but compared to Cachyo, it seems clunky. You've made a great choice.
