@taxorubio Yeah, especially important, if you write files in binary mode and don't lock the bit sizes. We had that problem also during the 64 bit migration
#MyFirstDistro was #LinuxMint . I installed it briefly before starting computer science in my computer and in a cousin of mine's because she was driving a 32bit W7 netbook with 2GB of RAM in 2014. I then switched to #Ubuntu because it was the distro specified in the curriculum, I played a bit with #Antergos and five years ago now I made the jump to #ArchLinux, the best distro I've ever used!
The last months I've been struggling to keep up with maintaining AUR packages, to the point that I have left many packages unattended for more than half a year and have basically neglected them to the point of receiving an orphan request.
Part of the issue has been my personal situation I've been working full time while finishing my degree and going through a surprise home change. love the landlord! On top of it, I stopped using GitHub in protest against Copilot and other policies.
I have finally re-written my script in maintainable Python and started re-testing and updating all my packages. You can find the new repository here: https://git.sr.ht/~groctel/pkgbuilds
Now, what I need to do is to set up a system to automate this process as much as I can. Still, this is a great step towards improving my mental health. It's brutal the toll overdue tasks like this can take on your mind.
I'm seriously considering starting my own instance. I love @fosstodon with all my heart, but I'd also like to experiment with my own space for me and my friends :ablobcatheartsqueeze:
