    What problems does the AUR create? I just install using yay, and it mostly works fine

      Users not being aware of what kind of package they install on their system and how AUR packages can conflict with normal repo packages. Additionally its a big security risk if you cannot/don’t read the code.

      AUR is basically like installing software from some kind of online source which is not supervised by anyone.
