Pretty sure that page is just number of people looking at it not actually installed popularity. While CachyOS is the currently hyped distro it isn’t one a lot of people should be running. Ubuntu, Mint, and fedora all have more users than Cachy.
Yeah I’ve been meaning to check that out. It’s been hitting my radar exponentially in the last few months, while 6 months ago I’d never even heard of it
Essentially it’s just Arch. Supposedly it makes games run faster, but I in all honesty see no difference at all after using it for a few weeks on my PC and Steam Deck. Your call if you want to give it a shot.

Depends on usage. I’m starting to see Linux on the types of industrial equipment that used to run the embedded flavours of Windows, and those are usually Ubuntu. When dealing with the developers of miscellaneous projects, Fedora seems to come up quite often, and everything production is Debian.
at some point Ubuntu was the most popular distribution. and the fastest growing one.
what’s the most popular one now?
That would be CachyOS. https://distrowatch.com/

Fastest growing seems to be CachyOS for some reason. Ubuntu is still the most popular if you count Kubuntu etc, otherwise probably Mint.
