    Paru is fast af, works for me and i don't actually have to compile it

      Yeah, installing it from paru-bin instead of paru saves a little time

      There is yay-bin that you don't have to compile as well

    Thanks for this vid. I would definitely like a vid on how to manually build packages as I’m new to Arch so I’ll look forward to that in the future. Thanks!

    What WM are you using? And where can I find the dots for it? I love it! I want to take a look at the Polybar specifically!

    I have been trying Pikaur for a few days now. I like the output how it separates the repos and that is neat. I don't use but one program from the Aur nowadays because they have all moved to the community repos... Lol
    Thanks for the video!

    I used paru for installing and topgrade for updating.Topgrade works in other distros as well.

      That seems like an interesting tool, I've never heard of that before. I might have to check that out.

    Bugswriter made a video about 'foot'-terminal and I thought you might be interested. Shows pictures, has search, emoji support, url hints and wayland support out of the box. Cpu accerelated and written in C.

    Please make a qemu command scripting/syntax tutorial and explain to me if arch makes sense as a “0th” level os when running virtual machines or docker containers is better supported by enterprise supported os?

    I only mean this to inform and correct you, not upset or angry, paru's current developer (who might not be the same as the original writer, but I have to say since it is a good chance.) uses they/them pronouns, not he/him.
