Linux guy whipping out the "Actually, it's a feature not a bug" line is very funny.

    Yeah I mean, this is the benefit of the fragmentation. If you don't want to update all the time, you just use a different distro. I know I do, I've run Linux for 21 years now and never once run Arch because I don't want what it does, but we're still on the same team, and the things they do benefit me nonetheless. There are drawbacks to the fragmentation, but this is one of the benefits.

    As a rescent convert coming from Ubuntu to cachy os, the update cadence of an arch ibased distro, is something to get used to. It is also one of the main reasons behind experimenting with it. I am.using ubutntu and debian for work related workloads, where stabiloty is more important than having.the latest software. For personal use and playing around, cachy has been awesome. You control your own cadence.with updates. I am doing weekly at the moment, or whenever I need some new piece of software.Β
