      I agree that it doesn’t have the same user support, but I think it’s like if manjaro went a lot further. It uses BTRFS, which allows for better timeshift integration. This lets you load up snapshots from timeshift from grub, so you can fix an installation that you broke so bad you can’t even get into it anymore. It also has some great assistant programs for network management, advanced system settings, maintenance, gaming software, and of course privacy.

      They also have thing called the chaotic AUR where (from what I understand) they precompile a ton of AUR software, so you can install it much faster. They said that they aren’t trying to make a “light” distro but instead a fast and well performing distro, saying that it will use ram as needed to make the system as quick as possible, but in case that worries you its good to know that when using resource intense software it will turn off a lot of the flashy effects so that you can use that power for whatever you’re doing.
