CachyOS provides many packages that are not available in the official Arch repo. But no matter what, I still prefer vanilla arch over anything else... What about you?

Yeah. I think it would be better if Arch Linux added the most used packages in AUR to its official repo. Then we can mitigate the packages abused by threat actors, and Arch Linux users will be more secure from malicious packages.
