I originally provided this an alternative to the broken AUR packages.
However, it seems that Arch users would rather use broken packages and
keep complaining to me instead of their packager. I spe...
The post says AUR builds are being blocked and soon Linux support will be dropped entirely.
The bidet maker is pissed because people complain to him that their bidet is leaking or has cracks. He’s annoyed at a distribution/installation company because they fumbled, so he’ll handle installation himself but only to the houses he approves.
Oh, and the bidets are free and nobody gets paid a cent.
Sure I’ll accept this analogy irt stenzek’s justified reaction. But this part is particularly wrong:
so he’ll handle installation himself but only to the houses he approves.
He doesn’t 1) install, 2) approves any bowl, 3) or should he. He can refuse to make bidet seats any time, but preferswașiki seats instead.
bidets are free and nobody gets paid a cent.
This is the damn crux🎯. GAMERS, PLEASE DONATE AS IF IT WAS REAL SOFTWARE YOU’RE BUYING. You don’t know how easily you can solve this by having paid workers fixing all this.
He doesn’t 1) install, 2) approves any bowl, 3) or should he. He can refuse to make bidet seats any time, but prefers wașiki seats instead.
He directly provides releases for Windows x64/ARM64, Linux x86_64/ARM32/ARM64 (in AppImage format), and macOS. He also explicitly forbids modifications, and since he considers “pre-configured settings” to be modifications, and this is basically barring any other distribution.
So while ultimately you’re right in that he doesn’t install it himself, he provides a super-simple “do it yourself” kit for people who live in apartments, while making anyone else who lives in a house have to assemble it from a million separate pieces themselves.
Note that I’m sympathetic, and I don’t know what the solution here is, but hopefully everyone figures it out…
Ok, then I’m wrong. The seat maker prefers wașiki, bidets, and flachspüler seats, but bidet users are at most risk of losing support, because Arch bidets stop dogfooding their bidet hinges correctly.
My take on a better analogy:

Agreed on the last 2 paragraphs.
