From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

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.
