If so, what do you think about it? I just made the switch from endeavourOS. I had some technical issues at first but that’s all fixed now and I’m really impressed. I thought I was done distro-hopping but apparently not.

Docs says that CachyOS has UFW firewall enabled by default. You can search how to configure it, it seems quite easy.
It’s usually the issue with automatic mirror selection. If you interrupt zypper using ctrl-c (only when it’s downloading, not installing of course) then it should select a faster mirror next time you run it. Zypper devs really should work on this though.
It’s not mirror selection, it’s just not optimal compared to what Pacman is doing with parallel downloads.
Downloading hundreds of tiny libxcxcxc.so one-by-one is painful. Since switching to pacman, I watch it download these, doing 10 packages at a time. 10 packages in 1 second versus zypper doing similarly sized 10 packages in ~10-15 seconds.
I don’t need the mirror to be faster, I need zypper to handle more than one of these thousands of files at a time. Downloading a 100kb file at 15mb/s is no good to me when it’s stopping and starting 800 of them sequentially.
And I only see the conversation go around in circles especially on zypper’s github.
That’s also true, but I have experienced an occasional issues when it would be stuck on downloading some package at 10 KiB/s because of bad mirror. Parallel downloads likely wouldn’t have helped in this case since it would select the same mirror. Obviously both issues need to be fixed though.
