Precisely. SSD puts the decorations in the hands of your window manager, which allows you to customise what information and controls are available in the title bar (or if you even want to display one at all), so you can use the space much more efficiently. With CSD, you’re down to the whims and opinions of the application, and their space-wasting choices (and whether they even choose to respect your theming).

That kind of case makes sense, actually.

Wow, that’s wild. I guess that’s what you get from being such a young/niche project, they haven’t had the time/demand to come up against the problems that all the other distros had to solve years ago.

I DLed Cachy with the torrent. Another thing I wish more distros would offer, haha!

I don’t think I’ve ever encountered a distro that doesn’t offer a torrent download option, since it saves the project expensive hosting costs.

Where are you running du -sh *? (I.e. what directory, are you definitely scanning the whole file system?) I’m sure it’s obvious, but can never hurt to check!

What does du -sh / show? (Generally, the * glob pattern in the shell will not match hidden dot-files, so is it possible they are being excluded?)

Or use both. That’s what I do, they serve suitably different needs for different situations, even if there is an overlap, and it’s not like they’re heavy tools
