    Whelp…I’ve REALLY loved EndeavourOS for my laptop, especially because I felt I could mess around with stuff, but maybe this is my call to use something like Fedora or a OpenSUSE variant (I love Tumbleweed dearly).

    Nothing against the incredible Arch, but I’m deffos that user who does

    > yay 
    > "Build files exist. Do clean build? N"  
    > "View changes? N".
    

    ENTER.

    I want to learn, but also I’m a bit of a danger to myself if this malware threat is this broad.

      Opensuse is great, been daily driving it for 1.5 years with no issues (issues were solved by booting an old snapshot and rolling back, updating again 2d later)

      Have you heard about the recent fuckups of fedora? fedora is a shitshow.

      If you just yolo with yay anyway, you will get compromised on any system you use, ni matter the OS or distro, my dude.

        Could you elaborate wrt Fedora being a shitshow? It’s my daily driver and I haven’t experienced any kind of instability and (to my knowledge) I have not been compromised.

        Oh really? I guess I haven’t. 😬

        Yeah it was late here so I think I was poorly mushing two separate thoughts together there. I meant I was thinking of moving to a distro that isn’t as bleeding-edge for the laptop I’m not updating every single day…But also I should find something that still has a nice large software variety so I stay off AUR.

        OpenSUSE has the “Open Build System” which I’ve used for like one package. So that’s pretty neat.

        This is really tough because I have two gamers in the family using Nvidia cards I want to help move off of Windows, but I don’t want them running into having to roll back as often as I have or fiddle too much, but I feel like Mint is a little too far behind.

        So I was considering the KDE spin of Fedora for them…But yeah, the answer isn’t so easy anymore lol.
