    I don’t know what you’re mostly on.

    • Dpkg is nowadays rock solid. I had 300 debians working together and auto updating at the same time, never had an issue.

    • managing dépendances when building from source, apart from Gentoo being built around the emerge management, no other package manager has any clue about source building dependencies.

    • confused about what’s the problem when using 'buntu while it’s updating.

    • Agree with this one. Fuck Canonical

    • same as above.

    • so it’s snap the problem then?

      • admittedly it’s been a couple years since I last used Ubuntu, and it may have gotten better in that time

      • I was talking about the AUR

      • see my first response. I remembered Ubuntu occasionally doing what Windows does and forcing a reboot, then spinning for 10-15m doing god knows what. Glad to hear they’ve fixed that

      • as for the last one I was talking about the fact that Canonical is willing to do that in the first place. It’s not the snap itself, it’s the fact that I told it to install a native package and it decided for me what I wanted. Shit like that is why I left Windows behind. “You don’t really want to set your default browser to something other than Edge, do you?”

        Tha aur is cheating, it’s basically a script to install the correct dependancies. It’s also not integrated natively into pacman so it’s not related to the package manager itself.

        Ok I understand what you mean for your last point
