he was based enough to no have package signing at all actually.
That came later after arch finally caved to the "lol no package signing" memes.
At least the feature was implemented reasonably well. It wasn't like how Go caved to the "lol no generics" and "lol no package manager" memes with the most retarded design and implementation possible.

Lol I don’t think you can suddenly be considered proprietary for trying to circumvent people taking without contributing much, and trying to profit from it too. Red Hatters seems perfectly fine with the idea of Alma.
>>
>>101220942
It's not fullly proprietary but it's legally so cancerous that you might as well consider it as such. I would absolutely not use RHEL. Everybody who needs that already uses Oracle Linux.

I would agree IF kwin wasn't utter complete garbage. Unfortunately, it is, and last time KDE received a huge donation ($200k) they redirected these money to develop a shitty office suite. Of which, by the way, I never heard again since then.

>>Fedora
>Beta testing branch
*alpha
CentOS is the new home for RH beta testing lab rats.
I mean, Fedora was shit even before this move.
I can't imagine how it is now.
I remember around 15-17 years ago, the street wise move was to upgrade to Fedora version X right after version X+1 is released.
This mostly came from masochist fans left over from before the RH-Fedora split. And that was the only way for them to get a system that is somewhat settled.
Many years pass, and Fedora *upgrades* to alpha "stable" (lol) status, and yet some still treat it like it's some sort of a stable distro.
One would think all the masochists had moved on by now, so I'm not sure who would unironically suggest Fedora as a productive choice nowadays. Probably non-Fedora users, non-Linux users even.
Fedora may *upgrade* to pre-alpha "stable" (lol) status, and a /g/tard or two would still list it as a "productive" choice for "the straight white working man" (maybe that's a euphemism for a retarded man who treats any polished marketing as gospel).
>>
>>101216561
Could be worse
>>
>>101223579
Arch is actually pre-pre-alpha. The Gnome developers push extremely buggy versions of Gnome to Arch and spend a large amount of time collecting bugs from their victims. And not just ordinary bugs, it’s stuff like five different crash bugs they refuse to fix until after a long time of bug collection.

Arch is a chad to it's users. Wanna install a programm? Some Autist already figured it out for you. Wanna use on latest hardware? Ships with newest Kernel by Default. Want to be an Xtard? Doesn't have default Desktop
>>
>>101223908
The GNOME developers do not push anything to Arch. Arch maintainers build and package whatever is the latest stable upstream release. If that happens to be a buggy piece of shit, then that's what it happens to be. Spread your FUD elsewhere.
>>
>>101223988

you're not confused! this happened?
why?
I can't image there were concerns about legality
like that's the most legal way to decode, since the hardware vendors paid the license

I’m sorry, I tried debian. Suddenly, I wasn’t at risk of bricking my pc ever, wasn’t at risk of downloading from a repository hosted by basement nerds, and it was as reliable as chad himself. I need nothing more

That, or the system changing settings randomly with updates and shitty recommended defaults and permissions.
Linux doesn’t have these things unless you update like a blind monkey, and honestly a lot more people would be on it if windows wasn’t synonymous with computer for the vast majority of the world’s population

If you understood what you were doing you wouldn't have that risk with any distribution.

Most universities have an Arch mirror.
>>
>>101224770

Exactly the problem, I don’t have to worry about “understanding” my OS or package manager as much. It’s a means, not an end. I’m not using arch to learn arch, I’m using arch to do other things besides arch. Unfortunately arch makes me do a whole bunch of shit to understand it and removes my focus from more important matters than the peculiarities of my OS. I don’t care, give me the updates with minimal risk and let me work without major changes to my apps. Debian does this well, as did early windows

>>
>>101224746
thanks.
Red Hat people think hardware vendors avoid paying the license, and didn't want to take the risk because they are a big target.
manjaro guy thinks he is red hat lol
>>
>>101224894
>Debian does this well,
I've had the opposite experience with Debian. Installing software unavailable in the official repositories was, usually, a nightmare. Far too often I was forced into compiling software just to get a specific package I needed to work. This made me worry far more about the peculiarities of the operating system, especially with how far from vanilla many Debian packages can be. The same problem occurs when I need to install any newer versions of software. I'm sure flatpaks have since alleviated many of those issues but it's far from being an encompassing solution.

In contrast, Arch, through purity, providing the AUR and just offering the latest releases manages to get the fuck out of my way far more than Debian ever could.
>>
>>101224139
>since the hardware vendors paid the license
apparently this is not necessarily the case
i don't know much about it, and probably few people really do, so i can completely understand commercial linux vendors erring on the safe side by just not providing a complete solution ootb

>>101216089
There's the glass ceiling some people have you're failing to consider.
I suppose it's only righteous to start admiring those who can do more if you've found out you've hit your limit.
It becomes more a test for those who can, in fact, do more.
>>
>>101214656
Arch has no default DE, that what it makes it based.
Also most of Arch based distros have KDE as the default DE which is based and chadpilled.
