(Update) I duel booted linux
-
I found a external drive and made a dual boot. I just thought i should let you all know.
Thoughts?
Immediate recommendation with KDE: your Windows key and the ~ key pressed together will bring up the ability to set snapping zones for windows. Very helpful tool, especially if you were a fan of "FancyZones" in Windows

Was hoping to see a duel here somewhere...
-
Duel boot is what you call it when Windows is the other OS
I just call that "a virus in a different partition". LOL

The battle was epic

I don't know if the key bind changed, but it's meta (windows key) + t, now. I only know because I read a very recent article from KDE about how the latest plasma -I'm on 6.4.3- tweaked it to be better.
I really like it, it has the option to create window gaps similar to how i3-gaps is.
Then hold the shift key when dragging a window to make it snap.

Have fun with CachyOS! It's what I'm using as my daily driver right now. Protip for BTRFS: learn how to rollback to a previous snapshot before you need to. It makes it a lot less stressful.
-
good on you, NVIDIA drivers are very decent these days, on wayland in particular. Glad to see someone rocking an Xeon chip, they are great chips.
And I just learned that CachyOS is based on Arch! I just began dual booting fedora (nobara) with arch, but went with river as the wayland compositor, because I heard good things. KDE is a great DE, keep learning linux, it's a lot of fun!
It's an arch installer that has its own set of optimized kernels id you want them, but also has a great kernel manager so you can pick different optimized ones or defaults or even hardened options. Plus it does BTRFS w/ snapshots set up for you, which helps deal with the Arch ecosystem's rate of updating

Who won?
Obviously the duel wielding rouge

en garde
I would also like to know who wins this duel.

Very important to enable wobbly windows as well.

Oooh I just started using Cachy, I love it!
I thought Arch was going to be a lot more daunting, but I already used the command line for a lot of stuff in my previous, Ubuntu-based distro. Make sure to set up Timeshift in case anything breaks though
(Oh and check out the Windows 7 theme that KDE Plasma offers. It's byoutiful.)

The boot manager does a coin flip each time to choose which one to use

yeah it's meta+t for me too.
is there a way to snap a window so it occupies 2 zones? i have a vertical monitor divided into thirds and sometimes i want a window to be 2 thirds tall

Then click and drag the area between the now 2 zones to resize.
I think they're unique to virtual environments too, now. So maybe make a virtual environment for when you want it 2 zones tall. Idk how to do that though, as I have never messed around with virtual environments.

Thats not a duel! Weaponise them and let them battle it out. The winner gets the boot! (Pun!!)

It's called duel boot when grub and the Windows bootloader keep overwriting each other.

More like boot duel
(this fight has been brought to you by UEFI)
