Thanks for the advice about yay. I've used it, too, for things, and it is impressive.

I do advice you to use AUR only if necessary.
Many packages might or will not work, distro maintainers don't test anything as that's up to any random user putting stuff on AUR.
It's quite a wild west, which is awesome to those of us with decades of experience with Linux under their belts, but might eventually destroy your OS if you don't use any type of caution.

Thanks for that advice. Arch seems extremely stable and fast on my PinePhone and that is what I like. I don't need the wild west on my phone right now. I'm still impressed by yay, though.
