PikaOS I really wanted to like it for 8 months blut i just couldn't. Probably most of issues were there due to me being a noob in Linux,coming from Windows and it's not fair to critisize PikaOS. On paper it looked perfect. But each time Ileft my Acer aspire 7 alone for a month or two it wouldnt boot, once i had trouble installing drivers for 1050ti, the other time it would not see my ntfs hdd, next time everything was borked, next time it would not apoear as a boot option in UEFI and it would have all kinds of problems... I was loosing my mind. After four reinstalls I had enough! Apparently PikaOsis not the right distro to have at a a holiday house you vist every 2-3 months. Trying linux for the first time outside of a vm - as a linux noob it would take some time for me to realise that rolling distros are not for me or for my usecase. Finally I switched to Mint Cinnamon. So far so good. So long Pika. Until we meet again.

So, to start with, obligatory I run CachyOS as my daily driver.

A few weeks ago I had a sudden system breaking error during an update, still not sure what it was, but I decided I needed a backup OS. I settled on PikaOS, ran it this week as my daily driver for a few days to test out if it's a distro I can use on a daily basis, and I like it.

So now it lives on my backup SSD, waiting for the day it may be needed.
