I’m still waiting for proper fractional scaling in gnome’s wayland that won’t turn the screen into a blurry mess. I’m using gnome tweaks’ font size setting as a workaround for now, but it’s not ideal.
Shouldn’t be blurry if you run Wayland supported apps. For me only Jetbrains products are blurry since they use Java which doesn’t support fractional scaling.
I assume you enabled experimental fractional scaling in gnome?
There are several DE. The two big ones are KDE and Gnome. If you want to switch I recommend trying a live image of Kubuntu, which is Ubuntu but with KDE.
Joke apart I’ve run into these issues once or twice before. The way to go is to purge the keyring then update it from scratch.
For AUR the best way to go is to install yay (see how on ArchLinux wiki) then go from there. Normally the dependencies should install themselves easily.
There was grapejuice which is a wrapper for roblox that runs it in wine with some custom config, as of this year it no longer works because of the new roblox hyperion anticheat
I install AUR packages “by hand” and maybe ran into this twice, where I had to install AUR packages to install an AUR package. That’s over a course of many years. It’s not a common occurrence.
What packages are you having trouble with?
Also, very important to know, using -S in pacman is called a partial update and it is not supported. That doesn’t mean you can’t do it or it doesn’t work, just best to avoid it. Always use -Syu. The full nuanced explanation can be found here wiki.archlinux.org/title/System_maintenance#Parti…
I wouldn’t disable sudo. This isn’t windows where all users are admins by default. It’s an important security feature to prevent unauthorized things from happening.
When you run makepkg to create a package from a PKGBUILD file, you can use the -s switch to automatically resolve dependencies from the repositories.
It’s still GNOME 2, but I see no problem with that, it works and I’m used to it and I like traditional desktops. I don’t need (or care about) round borders or those on/off switches of modern desktops, that make them look like phone screens turned 90°.
