And you people still fell for the bait.

This is why you read the manual.

Short answer: yes.

Long answer: yes, but longer.

THIS is misleading, though.

There are definitely more than just 69 users who uploaded packages to the AUR.

The vast majority of the AUR is package some random person added once then never bothered with ever again.

Yes, that sucks. But I was thinking of exclusively this packages: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?submit=Orphans

Finally some good AI news!

[Changing a package’s name] would break all dependencies of this package.

Yes, that is correct. But that should not be a big deal for packages that are actively maintained. The maintainer can simply change the dependency to the new name after making sure the new package is legit.

The problem is the current implementation

Yes, exactly this! I am not surprised it happens. I’m surprised it didn’t happen before.

especially new accounts

Weren’t there “sleeper accounts” registered years ago that became active in the current wave?

Also the AUR helpers should do a better job.

Even experienced people will just update as if nothing could happen. Adopted packages should have to use a different name and the current name being blocked so it WILL get attention when some tries to update their system.

Adoptions are a mistake anyways. Remove unmaintained packages and block the name for several months.

FACT

The corporation basically stole the project from the community and started hiding features behind a paywall.

It is completely irrelevant if you need the features that are closed and behind a paywall and are not part of the open core.

We should also keep in mind that Gitea was hostilely taken away from the community by a for-profit corporation that made Gitea open-core by hiding a way features behind a paywall in a cloud.

cgit always feels last century. Even with so-called “modern CSS” it’s just ancient.

You mean, like, ordering search results on YouTube by date?

It’s bean cake!

Eat your bean!

Good decision. Ubuntu is a highly complex and specific all-in-one distribution never meant for customization.

But what are electrolytes!?

I can hear that!

Labwc allows for all kinds of menus on root. You can freely define a menu and open it on a click action.
