    The AUR is made up of user packages

    It isn’t crazy that malware made it in. It is very much a “user at your own risk.” Packages are reviewed but sometimes things slip in.

      yeah, you get choice, and its better than a random closed exe in windows.

      Some people have really odd expectations of “free” and “open”.

      Is there a choosingbeggars community to repost this to?

      Just make sure the aur wears a condom when it’s going to fuck you, like your mother told you.
