  1. After seeing so many riced up distros that run like crap I decided to take up the slack and make my own port. This is still CachyOS, an ArchLinux based distro, but it contains "optimized packages" out of the box (not many on PS4 due to its older architecture). It is as bare bones as it gets, simple, doesn't get in your way, but most importantly: it's fast. I've also included multiple themes, so you can customize the looks if you so desire!

  3. What it contains
  4. This distro is as simple as it gets, and these are the only changes I made:
  5.  
  6. "uBlock Origin", "I still don't care about cookies" extensions, and "BetterFox" installed
  7. Matcha GTK theme, Qogir cursor and Tela icon themes, as well as Picom compositor (animations and transparency) installed (but disabled to get more performance, if you want to use it, enable it in "Session Settings")
  8. PS4 specific Mesa 26.0.4 (GPU) drivers, automatically updated with Pacman
  9. More info
  10. If you want to install the gaming packages, do so by going in the "Apps/Tweaks" section of "CachyOS Hello".
  11. If you need to configure the distro (i.e. change language and keyboard layout and more) check this out.
