It's clear he holds a dim view of Packman; it's also clear that this view is informed by his own packaging experience, the standards he has for the craft, and Packman allegedly failing to meet that standard. > Official openSUSE repos have LAYERS upon Layers of checks and balances > > A submitter SHOULD have their changes reviewed by someone else in > their devel project > > A submitter WILL have EVERY change reviewed by the openSUSE release > team > > A submitter WILL ALSO have EVERY change reviewed by the openSUSE > review team > > A submitter WILL ALSO have EVERY change checked by an army of bots and > possibly also openQA > > A submitter touching security sensitive stuff (eg Polkit, default > services, etc) WILL ALSO have that change viewed by our separate > security team > > That’s 2 to 4 extra pairs of eyes on EVERY submission to openSUSE plus > all the automated checks > > Packman does NONE of that — 2025-02-24 <https://old.reddit.com/r/openSUSE/comments/1ix1f4z/is_using_tumbleweed_without_packman_a_viable/mejtoto/> So cut the dude some slack. I don't see myself using Flatpaks over Packman; OT1H the release model makes sense to me, as someone who likes the latest-and-greatest straight from upstream, OTOH - latest-and-greatest is why I use a rolling release, Flatpak brings nothing new there; - having to pick-and-choose apps which need codec-smuggling is a bother; - containerized apps break in subtle ways precisely because of the security benefits containers bring: too many holes to punch in order to integrate smoothly with the rest of the desktop. So just nod and move on.

Mainly so Org stops re-indenting that quote block whenever I edit a neighboring paragraph. Also partly because I wanted to understand how I went from GitHub to Reddit on that one, tho no clue on that count.
