Thanks for the advice. I'll consider it long-term, but want to stick with SteamOS for now. I gave a more detailed reply to a different comment if you're interested in reading it.
Hmm, yeah I read that. I think you are just not the target audience of SteamOS. It's more or less meant for people who don't want to tinker.
If you're already familiar with Cachy it's probably a great choice. Personally I went with OpenSUSE which was quite a hassle to get set up like I want. Especially since I couldn't be bothered to hook up a keyboard. But I think Cachy has all the stuff I had to add manually already integrated.
