Clear Linux is another great flatpak-heavy distro, albeit not with all of the security benefits of an immutable base OS.

Linux is a processing/AI tool for me. So performance is king, which means CachyOS (based on Arch) for Nvidia systems and Clear Linux for non Nvidia systems.

Oh that a really interesting distro. I have never heard of Clear Linux.

That's the beauty of having so many Linux distros. There is pretty much always a distro for your use case.

TBH I think many people avoid it because they read "Intel" as "Intel only," but it works great on AMD.
