  • As far as Arch-based distros go, CachyOS has a lot of helper tools included, and a lot of GUI programs. That’s probably why people consider it beginner-friendly.

    I wouldn’t really consider CachyOS as a beginner distro. It’s probably the most accessible for anyone looking for something highly optimized, but there are plenty of others that are easier to set up and use.

    Been daily driving Cachy for a couple years now, and I love it. It’s not for everyone, though.






  • Technically, but the algorithm consists of which communities you’re viewing and what order you sort posts. Generally when people talk about an “algorithm” in social media, they mean an opaque self-tuning selection process based on your usage patterns (and whoever is paying them the most). And Lemmy doesn’t have any of that.

    If you’re selecting sort-by-new and you’re noticing problems with getting old posts mixed in, that would be a problem. But seeing the same posts when you’re viewing the same communities and sorting the same way isn’t a problem, it’s showing you what you asked for. Why blame the “algorithm”?
