  • pacman in my opinion is the easiest package manager ive used but even so if it is that difficult then they can use a GUI package manager that would come pre installed on most GUI arch based distros

    Recognizing that’s your opinion, in my opinion it’s the hardest I’ve used. The commands are all flags, so you have to remember letters instead of “install” or “upgrade” if you want to use any packages outside of the like 4 in the official repos, you have to enable AUR, which is effectively just installing from source from some random person’s GitHub repo, in which any number of things can go wrong. I mean, there’s a reason there exist a bunch of different wrappers for pacman.
