Updates in Linux are not random third party scripts you find online, why are you spreading this lie?
You go into your app store/software centre and click update. To the user, this is all they see.
If you want to feel like a hacker, or find it quicker, you can open a terminal run sudo dnf update or whatever. That’s still not a random third party script, though.
but only providing instructions for… what, fedora and rhel?
Yes, what, did you want me to provide instructions for everything under the sun? Look at what I wrote, I said “or whatever”, I.e. or the equivalent commands on another distro.
And saying that running your package manager from the command line is to “feel like a hacker?”
Lmao you’re just confirming you’re trying to bait people here.
Fun fact there’s a range of distros that don’t have proper UIs for their package manager
Ok? What’s your point? You’d only install a distro that leans heavily on the terminal if you’re the kind of person who wants to rely on the terminal. I don’t even know what point you’re trying to make lmao
What exactly do you think is inside of those packages?
It varies. But regardless, that’s a colossally stupid point. Installing random .exe files you find online also executes scripts.
The point you made was that on Linux the way you install programs is to go online and run random scripts. That is objectively a lie, and now you’re backpedaling away from that point.
And you know, Flatpaks do exist and are the standard now.
Normally they’d say this and then change it again. That’s pretty much how every “feature” they’ve added to their OS and it is becoming a little too bloaty.
Welp… Linux it is, then
Nahh bro just use third party script then re run it every update 🤡
