I only update Arch before installing new software, or when there's a news item about something requiring manual intervention.
So about once a month.
Every update is basically a complete reinstall.

Congratulation, you just invented atomic update.

Bro, what? You're doing something majorly wrong if everytime you update you have to treat it as a fresh install.

[-] KISSmyOS@feddit.de 2 points 7 months ago

No no, it just installs the new packages and everything works. Takes a minute. What I meant is, it installs new versions for basically every installed package.

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!
