Gatekeeping the word "software" here?
Here's something not in the AUR. Tested on arch
Clearly we need an Arch version of rule 34 and rule 35
Rule 34a: If linux software exists, it's in the AUR. No exceptions.
Rule 35a: If linux software is not in the AUR, it will be made available in the AUR.
I don't intend on pushing that one to the AUR. It's not worth it.
Maybe I'll make an AppImage at most.
I don't know any formal requirements for it being on AUR, but I just feel like this one does not fit there.
Sorry, I've already posted the new internet rules and they took immediate effect, I'll have to report this incident to...the council.
Someone will put the AppImage in AUR
This is such a weird gatekeeper take
Its a joke lol, why are you so serious all the time
