      all they have to do is to check the damn diff, if that’s not easy for someone then they should stop using a computer altogether. I mean they could just click to random links on the internet right?

        Literally what the AUR says to do before installing any package yet apparently no one does it.

        No. It just means they should stop using AUR

        I only use official and flatpak, I wouldn’t even use flatpak if official had more.

        Chaotic aur might be worth looking into if aur is what you want. Everything there is theoretically checked.

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.
