Hhaven't used it before
Hgreat
Trpm-ostree install <pkg>
Kyes, but use it as a last resort
Hyeah and it's connected to the Fedora repository right?
Kideally you want to use flatpak or distrobox
Kyes
Tyea
Hgreat
Hyeah ofc
HOne of the best parts about Arch is AUR and SteamOS having no access to it unless you do a very time consuming manual script was kind've a bummer
Kyeah, that's exactly why I made bazzite
Hey so someone gets my frustrations
Hnais
Kwas already a silverblue user, saw steamos, and said
"hey wait a minute, fedora already does this better"
"hey wait a minute, fedora already does this better"
Kso, I did
Tujust distrobox > bazzite-arch > you now have paru and access to the AUR if you need itKyeah this too 
Hoh I forgot about Distrobox, thats also great
Hby the way, I see this sentiment a lot, what's wrong with just pulling programs off of the terminal from a trusted repository?
AFedora doesn't have aur and copr is not up there yet but it's quite good
Tcan break updates with certain packages and COPR repos
AAur is also not trusted
Hwhy are Flatpaks considered so much better? I mean I honestly prefer downloading things through a GUI too but the Discover store pisses me off beyond belief
Tyou can fix that breakage by removing the package
Tbecause shit usually just works
APretty much, when they both work local install is better
Tif you dont like discover

HIt's not AUR specifically as much as the fact that big Linux distributions like Arch and Fedora tend to have every app you'd want through a terminal install command, Arch's is just the biggest afaik
Tflatpak can install with CLI
Hso an Arch-based distro not being able to make use of AUR icked me off
AYou must be confusing the arch repository with aur
Hthe Package Search specifically
HI'm new to Linux so forgive me if I confuse terms
AThe Arch package repository is a bit more full featured
ABut fedora is not bad at all
VYouTubeFan The Deck
Big update for Steam Deck and PC gaming plus a Steamy lawsuit and talk about some really huge milestones for Steam and Steam Deck, the launch of the MSI Claw, not to mention why Valve is not done with the Steam Deck. I also want to talk about my game of the week but that’ll have to wait until the end of the video.

HYeah I just think repositories are great, so many times I've tried installing something that ends up being a .tar.gz with no sensible documentation on how to install it
Hbut I can just sudo apt get it and it'll install fine
T.tar.gz:happy_green_trees: avoid these at all costs imo
HI got too used to using the terminal because all I've used up until this point was Arch and Arch-based stuff
Tfor your sanity
Kspeaking of which, we ship boxbuddy now
Hyup, that's why I love repositories
HDon't have to read or do anything
K
Tboxbuddy my beloved
