Still, the CachyOS hype killed the Linux hype.
No it didn't. Most new Linux users are still going with distros like Mint or Bazzite.
Yet, the majority of influencer videos about linux during that period praised only CachyOS, and I bet most of them reverted back to windows when they got enough of their Matrix roleplay with the terminal.
You're in a bubble in a bubble in a bubble. I think.
