I’ve been seeing a lot of talk about CachyOS recently. Has anyone here tried it? It seems interesting and I might give it a go (currently on EndeavourOS) on a spare drive in my PC.

Do you mean, why I don’t use Arch? Instead of EndeavourOS or CachyOS.
These distros are just Arch with some scripts.
I have done a manual install of Arch, just to say that I did. Who knows, I might do that again in the future but for now I’m happy with EOS.
EOS is about return on time. I can install and configure Arch. For most of the machines I install, I would rather just use EOS since I like most of its defaults ( including Dracut ). Some of the EOS utilities are nice as well.
As you say, EOS is basically Arch once installed. So what is the downside?
Just having to hunt down and install yay on Arch is reason enough to use EOS to begin with.
I notice that CachyOS installs both yay and paru out-of-the-box. Nice.
