Any experience with laptop battery life on Cachy?
Battery life is really good, on par with Windows on my current laptop. For some reason battery life was really bad on Bazzite, like 30% worse or so. I don't know how it compares to other distros.
That’s what I’m finding. I was on Pop-os for a while and battery life was amazing. I started hopping again and found a real drop on Debian, Elementary, and now Ubuntu.
If you don’t mind my asking, what are your main use cases? Mine are mainly browser-based and documents.
When I'm on battery I mainly use the browser. When I'm plugged in it's usually gaming.
