    Setting Aliases because I can’t remember the new ones

    I got a buddy who switched to EndeavourOS after using Linux Mint for about a year, He said he was too lazy to learn pacman/yay so he spent an hour making fake apt aliases, I forgot what happened but after a while he gave up on it and just got use to pacman.

      I just set

      upd = <distro update command>
ins = <distro install command> 
pur = <distro purge command>
uin = <distro uninstall command>

      in every distro, I don’t know why you’d want package management to be distro specific commands

        ins and uin for some reason feels wrong, like inst and tsni feels more right to me and I know it shouldn’t.

          ins feels like insert. uin feels like it skips the first n on accident. To me, anyways.

      I’m fine with using pacman in general, but always forget how to uninstall an app completely. So I set the alias yeet for that. Since then, I’ve also set it on different systems like dnf.

      I’ve found a cheat sheet from apt to pacman/yay that helped me with that
