BORE and other alternative kernels
BORE and other alternative kernels
Hey all! I recently installed CachyOS which comes with linux-cachyos-bore as the default kernel, and I have to say that it does feel a lot snappier to just use and click around, even though I have almost the exact same Plasma setup as my previous Arch install. So now I'm wondering how many great patches and forks I'm missing out on :D
What's your experience with using kernels other than linux, linux-lts, and linux-zen? Now that I'm free of Nvidia bullshit I'm more inclined to test out different things, does anyone have some resources like comparisons of the various alternatives out there?

I've never heard of these. Can you describe some of them?
These are all variations of the Linux kernel, as in they are compiled with different options or components. In this case we're talking about different schedulers, which is the part of the kernel which decides what tasks are executed, when and for how long, etc.
