I got flamed on a discord for showing my runtime as like 9 days or something since my last sudo pacman. What is the conventional wisdom for upgrade scheduling? I typically do like once a week but I don’t mind if it ends up being once a month. Is that bad?
I was tempted to switch to Nix but the reviews I’ve seen said it’s a lot more work than Arch and there’s less compatibility (although i find arch to not really be time intensive but I do have compatibility issues still here and there).
Nah people are over zealous these days. I do it on Fridays or when I remember, whatever happens first. And I’ve been running arch or other rolling release distros for well over 15 years.
These days prompt injection or supply chain attacks are way more likely to pwn you than running 1week old software. (My own thoughts, idk if this is good praxis either.)
But flaming is bad and you shouldn’t get that response regardless. Sorry ❤️

It was a rowdy crowd, I choose to take it in jest. Thanks for this advice, I appreciate it.
