is there any reason to try CachyOS over EndeavourOS or are they pretty much the same? (lemmy.ml)

I'm currently on PopOS 22 and I'm in the mood to try something different. I mostly game but I do need my system to have support for the everyday tasks I sometimes need to do, so I fell bazzite is a no go.

I see a lot of people recommending Cachy, will it be a smooth experience for someone used to linux? Is Endeavour a better choice? Will I have issued with my PS3 eye camera and x52 stick?

I've been daily driving CachyOS for probably a year or two now? And it's been pretty solid for just about everything.

It doesn't feel like Arch as much to me. A gui package manager, easy-to-use optimized packages, and most things working easily out of the box make it feel more like Mint without all the extra default applications (which I prefer). There's lots of room to tinker, but I don't do much of that, and it runs great.
