most of the the Arch cult forget to mention that
The “Arch cult’s” holy book, the ArchWiki, states the following pretty clearly:
Warning: AUR packages are user-produced content. These
PKGBUILDs are completely unofficial and have not been thoroughly vetted. Any use of the provided files is at your own risk.
Mention of one’s use of the AUR for their needs doesn’t need to come with a disclaimer.
People who don’t read or don’t use their brain are going to keep not doing so, regardless.



I can understand that way of thinking, but
But the equivalent would be to take tutorials, examples and small open source projects and tinkering with them, rather than asking a machine to do it for you, no? I guess we’ll have to see how this affects young / beginner programmers going forward. I’d rather be careful than just hoping it all works out fine.
