The #Mastodon package on the AUR for #ArchLinux is no longer maintained: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mastodon#comment-1031872
There is a -git package still maintained, but I'm usually wary of them.
Really hope someone steps up to take it over.
@nixCraft The issue here with #Windows11 is that you download a 5 GB ISO to install it and need a Internet connection. The #Archlinux ISO is just 700MB.
Oh wait it's 1.3 GB now...
Man am I glad to have moved away from the #ArchLinux ecosystem. The #AUR is such a mess. Dependencies vanishing - no notifications. Packaging standards changing, people manually complaining to please follow standards. No real way to submit patches. Adopting dead packages takes ages. No assertion whatsoever that anything builds at all. Everything can break tomorrow. Partial up/-downgrades don't work, you're screwed.
Now on #NixOS all of that is just so much better
#CachyOS July 2025 Update Finally Lets Users Choose the Shell During Installation, #Wayland Now Used by Default for New #KDE Plasma Installations https://9to5linux.com/cachyos-july-2025-update-finally-lets-users-choose-the-shell-during-installation
I just discovered that there is a Mastodon client included in the KDE stuff I installed when setting up my Arch Linux system: Tokodon.
Just set it up, really cool that I now can browse Mastodon without using the browser =)
War echt gewillt, von #Archlinux weg zu gehen. Debian et co sind zu alt (Cura in Version 5 von 2022). #Gentoo ist etwas zu Aufwändig. So schlug Herr @felsqualle *BSD vor.
FreeBSD in einer VM getestet und nunja.
Nicht Uninteressant und nahezu auch Aktuell. Aber als ich die Benennung der Seriellen Schnittstellen gesehen habe, war ich raus. Mag kleinlich klingen, aber ich mag /dev/ ttySx ttyAMAx ttyUSBx mehr als /dev/ cuadX, cuauX, ttyU*
Und ja, ich arbeite viel mit den Seriellen Konsolen
Es ist soooo lieb von dir dass du meine Leistungen an erkennst,

Arch Linux after a broken system update.
sudo pacman -S bondage arch-linux --noconfirm
It's powered by ArchLinux! #linux #archlinux #SteamDeck
Ah yes, the classic distro wars, and the usual Windows critics
Sounds about right!
This is a Second Test Toot to see if these #hashtags are, or are not, picked up in my [#Sharkey] putative new alternative instance... [my first one was accidentally drafted & sent as Followers Only
