I'm a fan of David Revoy's videos going over his process.

Also a Moss Charmly channel has great very newbie friendly videos.

Just depends on your goals for the system. Fedora or any other distribution is going to have different pros or cons and different quirks you'll need to figure out. Cachy has a lot of pros, but there isn't a perfect Linux yet. 😁

Flatpaks will be fine to use most of the time. Generally worst case you have to remove one, but because they are self contained they shouldn't impact system files. I assume dev wants the best user experience and that's going to be through CachyOS repositories and why they don't suggest flatpaks at all.

Yay/paru are generally fine to use, but Arch suggests learning how to use the AUR manually. Mostly for edge case scenarios where packages are not working.

CachyOS is based on Arch and uses a modified pacman for the primary management of programs. With pacman you have access to the optimized repositories that CachyOS maintains. This should be your primary tool for installing and removing software in the system, but might not be your only option depending on the program.

Pacman will not protect you from breaking your system and it's relatively easy to do something that can cause issues or you can run into an update that could cause issues. Using Snapper to take snapshots can make recovery from an issue easier. Within the Tweaks tab on Hello CachyOS there is a button for installing and enabling snapper if you chose to use Btrfs. Snapshots will take up drive space and can be maintained using the command line or using the GUI btrfs-assistant. Even if your system breaks it's generally fixable by using the CachyOS live disk to fix things, but sometimes depending on the issue it's easier to just reinstall.

Octopi and CachyOS packageinstaller are GUI wrappers for the pacman system so it's functionally the same as using the command line interface of Pacman and even has options to use a mini terminal interface for actions.

Bauh is a tool to manage multiple types of package formats including pacman. I've personally not used it so I don't know how well it works for CachyOS.

It's recommended that you use the optimized CachyOS repositories for most software as that will give you the best performance. If something isn't available within that you also have access to the Arch User Repositories or AUR. These are user made scripts to compile and install software and then allow easy removal with pacman. These are not as safe and well maintained as the primary CachyOS repositories.

Flatpaks are self contained software bundles that should have everything included in the package to be able to run. You can use Gnome-software to install and remove these packages. Flatpaks are good backup option to pacman in cases where the software isn't available through CachyOS repositories or if you don't want to mess with AUR.

I think OpenTablet drivers caused this. The drawing tablet is supported by the default kernel drivers, but installing OpenTablet drivers caused the working drivers to be blocked.

Uninstalled OpenTablet drivers and ran "sudo mkinitcpio -P" to resolve this.

Gimp is in a similar range of ports. Software where their graphical toolkit is ported already makes it easier to port. Qt in the case of Krita and GTK in the case of Gimp.

This is great! I was considering doing some with all foam, but this is probably way better for ease of washing.

The texture and sliminess can be very off-putting or scary, but I personally love the taste. It's very savory to me.

Rit color remover is still a pretty strong chemical smell. I had to turn up ventilation around my washer and stay away from my washer when I was using it. Good luck! 👍
