What's the Best AUR Helper? (Paru vs Yay vs Pikaur)

I'm new to arch (and linux im general). Do i need to install bat in order to have syntax highliting? Do i need to have neovim in order to view packages?

What colorscheme is that in your terminal? Looks great

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?

paru not updated form 6mo,
i go back to yay

I use paru and pikaur i use pikaur for package that take long time to build if i use yay and leave him for a long time when i come back he says timeout because i was to long not prompting my password

Isn't paru flagged out of date?

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!

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.

Thanks )

Hello, first of all, thank you for all the interesting videos. I am wondering how you deal with the unfortunate fact that an increasing number of local apps want to access the internet (telemetry and worse), but there does not seem to exist an user-friendly solution in Linux. In Windows the integrated "Advanced Firewall" works great with manual whitelisting programs. You can even allow only LAN or only certain ip ranges etc. How do you handle this? AppArmor seems very complicated to maintain as a user.

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

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.

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!

You can enable notifications on the aur packages you use and clone the package whenever it gets updated.
Aur helpers are nice if you use a lot of aur packages, maybe something like more than 15 or 20. Otherwise its wise not to use them.

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!

Another helpful video. Thanks brother.

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

I am a newbie in archlinux, this information comes in handy, I am currently using yay, I will give paru a try to see how it works....
