      Same. I was on Cachy for a few months but recently switched back to Fedora. I’m sleeping very peacefully.

        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.

      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?

      Adoption of unmaintained packages to maintain them is not a mistake. The problem is the current implementation, not the idea behind it. It’s like saying the AUR is a mistake, because some people do malicious stuff.

      They should find a better solution, like adoption shouldn’t be granted to everyone without question, especially new accounts who didn’t maintain anything before. Mass adoption shouldn’t be granted automatically (limit rate), in example 1 package adoption per day and if someone wants more, admins or moderators need to approve. And updates of newly adopted packages should wait a day.

      Also the AUR helpers should do a better job. Always ask if a new adopted package should be updated and give a warning the maintainer changed.

        Who’s “they”? Because it’s not Arch. Arch doesn’t want to have anything to do with AUR, and neither does any of the Arch-derived distros. They’re all perfectly happy taking advantage of it, of course, but not the responsibility.

          Where did you got this nonsense from? What do you mean “they are not Arch”? The AUR is managed and operated by the Archlinux team. As the packages are community-driven content, they cannot guarantee and give support, because it is not their package. But they are still managing and supporting the AUR itself.
