    As a Linux user, I disagree. It's his time and investment. Sometimes you gotta make difficult choices and when users complain about stuff that's unrelated, it's a mess for a dev to deal with. And Linux users are loud

      This is the type of shit that makes devs not want to support Linux. Respect volunteers.

        As someone who used to use arch for years, I can't stand its users who go around acting like running it is some herculean task that takes serious knowledge.

        In reality its not much more than a misbehaved pet that requires constant attention and a blog post to be read every month or so. Not because its hard, but because its updates are just kinda slapped together and tossed out in the name of speed.

        One of the biggest indicators of this is the AUR. For what it was worth, the Gentoo crowd it replaced at least knew how to compile a program.

        Maybe learn to use git, tar, and make like literally anyone else on any other fucking distro.

        I feel like I'd need to check the wiki less if pacman had flags that made more sense lol. Plus so many variations of commands the wiki warns "this will break your shit".

        I really like Arch, I'm using CachyOS, it's been great. But I do miss apt lol. Maybe that's just because I was used to it though. Update and upgrade being two totally different things is also extremely counterintuitive.

          Arch linux. Hmm. Could it be because of the users? Lately arch linux has become the most popular distro for people trying linux for the first time. Are they all congregating on duckstation's github to cry about it?

            I'm sure that's it.

            I'll continue to not use software from mewling babies who blame others because they can't control their own boundaries.

              Appinages are fine. Needing to apply changes as patchsets rather than just building normally sucks. Especially in deb and rpm distros.

                      Oh yeah, this guy works for free and doesn't like getting reports for things that are beyond his control, this guy is a huge baby, fuck him for working for free!

                      You're not paying his salary, he doesn't owe you shit. No liability and all that.

                      People like you are why open source developers quit. They don't get paid for this, and when it's no longer pleasant, they stop doing work.

                          Year of the Linux desktop pushed out a year due to Linux infighting and intolerable advocates for the 33rd year. Clearly the fault of the other distros as I use Arch.

                                  Well yes and no you can release them going forward under a new licence. If you obtained your copy under the old license you can use it under the old license when you obtain a new copy you have a new license agreement. Thats absolutly possible to do.
                                  Revoking licenses is alot harder though and changing the lizens from a foss on to another is often confusing and business inapropiate. However it is legal.

                                  Assuming newer versions are derived from code that was licensed GPL in the old version, the newer versions (which include new code) are also licensed GPL, whether the person writing the new code likes it or not.

                                      Why should he get a say on how someone else installs the software on their own systems?

                                      If I want to build an arch package instead, what business is that of his?

                                      It's open source, the package the developer chooses to distribute doesn't affect your ability to create whatever kind of package for your own system you want.

                                          Its moments like this I'm glad to be a nixos user lol.

                                          Slap that shit in a flake and forget about it. No matter what updates the dev has, or what system the user has, its always gonna compile.

                                          Fuck I love nix.

                                          If it had genitals I'd fucking date it.
