Same thing happened with snap apps a couple months back too. Least they took action on it.

No shit? The AUR is full of random crap tossed in by users. It's not curated
Noah Sanchez
arch is garbage for boomers
Gabriel Gray
Not like Arch users have anything to really lose. Can't really ruin the life of a basement dweller.
Camden Rivera
Malware is a subjective term. What if I want to use my computer to mine crypto for Russian skiddies?
Dylan Nguyen
And this is why I refuse to use Arch Linux. At least Ubuntu's repository is properly vetted at the cost of being much smaller.
Evan Miller
Stop using dead memes, boomer

Gentoo's github got hacked
Arch Linux got hacked
DEBIAN MASTERRACE

It's literally the same faggot if you read the article. He didn't even use a different username. If Ubuntu users noticed I don't know why he thinks arch useres wouldn't. What a fucking retard.

The AUR isn't maintained by the arch team . These packages are maintained by users dumbass. Nothing was "hacked". The arch repos are malware free. This is what you expect from a fucktard that considered Debian useable let alone the best distro out there.
Jack Sullivan
it's not fair to compare aur which is an unofficial repo with ubuntus official one. the bun equivalent would be ppas which are just as insecure

more like
DEBIAN KEKRACE
Isaiah Bell
>debian was named after his ex
Huh, so that's why people pronounce it that way. I just assumed it was some pretentious nerd thing.

James Rodriguez
Yeah, the story here is "people run code that some stranger hands them over the internet without checking anything out, get malware".
Dominic Nelson
idk man, maybe don't install random AUR packages like "free-russian-malware" its as secure as any windows applications
Jaxson Bennett
Challenge accepted.

>Well?
well what ? no one in the real world cares
because no one uses community repos (or arch) except the basement dwelling neckbeards of Jow Forums
Levi Flores
Mal AUR is like getting a PPA and being surprised that it's laced with malware.
Cooper Anderson
Yeah? That's why you always check the files yourself, especially if they come from the AUR
Chase Ortiz
>no one is checking this fucking get
Isaiah Harris
I think it's gentoo installing time
Ryan Jones
>linuxuprising.com
which one of you did this
Carter Campbell
except it's not even equal to ppas because they are binaries
aur is just scripts
Jeremiah Allen
you mean cuckrace
Robert Cruz
you pronounce it DIBian? and think others are wrong?
Ryan Taylor
Jow Forums uses menjaro and mint

I can't imagine anyone unironically using Abloatee Reader not being retarded. For those of you who didn't read the article, it was the AUR package for Adobe Reader.
Levi Clark
damn son where'd you find this?

Pretty much this. Sad that OP had to completely "forget" to mention any of this in the thread and even sadder that faggot kiddos instantly start tripping over each other to start "distro war" shitposting without any critical thinking or research at all. The absolute state of kids, I guess.
