I’ve installed arch Linux and liked it, but lfs and Gentoo would be too time consuming compiling everything and not doing anything during and after install. Are there any distros like arch that don’t have me compiling everything?

    use the chaotic aur repo for Arch

    Automated building repo for AUR packages

    https://aur.chaotic.cx/

    It’s not safe to use because it just compiles AUR packages. However, it’s good practice to have your data like personal info, game saves etc. in a encrypted vault away from the devices you use everyday. Even my boomer parents get this, I tell them their NAS needs be open like a safe with their Yubikey.

      The AUR itself only got malware like once or twice. If you don’t trust binary blobs from some strangers then why do you trust my advice?
