Yeah, the AUR seems pretty dodgy.

[-] shekau@lemmy.today 0 points 3 months ago

Why? they don't like using AUR or what?

[-] lord_ryvan@ttrpg.network 8 points 3 months ago

Anyone can upload packages to the AUR, and people often use it without verying the source, so yeah that can be dodgy

You use the AUR because you want more packages.
I use the AUR because I believe in humanity.
We are NOT the same.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
