  • I learnt a lesson yeah. It looks like I got away, there’s no rootkit, I found nothing weird running, I don’t have npm Installed, and up until now it doesn’t seem like the packages I had installed were compromised. But I had way more AUR packages installed than I was aware of. And I was just updating them without really caring about the pkgbuild, I have better things to do. Multiple packages were outdated crap that shouldn’t have been there anymore.

    I was careless and took too much risk. I reduced the Installed AUR packages to a minimum, and from now on I will verify the PKGBUILDs on every update. Maybe Arch isn’t really what I need. I’m on the LTS kernel and I no longer really use the AUR. But switching will be a huge hassle and this setup will work well from here on out, so I’ll stick to it for now

    Not really though. I haven’t been on the big social media platforms in forever, even during my 20s I was already gone. That doesn’t withhold you from visiting parties, chilling with friends, going places, etc. The only big platform that I’m still on is WhatsApp, because it’s the main way to message people here, and that’s how you can go places. But I haven’t go Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, TikTok, and whatever the fuck people use to consume ads nowadays
