\nLooking for Arch-based Distros with Minimal Rust Packages<\/div>\nI\u2019m mostly just putting out feelers for what\u2019s available at the moment. I\u2019m looking for something that meets the following criteria: Arch-based Beginner\/intermediate friendly (I.e. won\u2019t require constant work to fix bugs) Doesn\u2019t incorporate Rust beyond what\u2019s already in the kernal. I really like CachyOS. It\u2019s super fast even on limited hardware thanks to the BORE scheduler, has been fairly reliable (especially for a rolling release), is relatively easy to use, and the theming looks\u2026<\/div>\n![\"FOSS](\"https:\/\/itsfoss.com\/content\/images\/icon\/f274f9749e3fd8b4d6fbae1cf90c5c186d2f699c_2_180x180-61.png\")
