Me who uses GNOME on Debian stable

I have tried both kde and gnome many times and i can't stand either one. I'm forever stuck in cinnamon.
somehow every distro that ships with kde has tons of big bugs that I can't figure out (probably related to my setup), and gnome feels like a tablet UI. cinnamon won't autosuspend but it's the smallest headache of these...

Gnome on Debian is fairly out of date. I personally like all the new features.
However, I think it would be cool if you could run Fedora with gnome in Podman. Solid base with containers for newer stuff.

438 dependencies will need to download 1.4 gb ^C ^C ^C ^C ^C-
Yeah that drives me nuts, it's like I'm installing a flatpak

I don't even need to install any new packages to get that
sudo zypper dup992 packages to upgrade, 2 to downgrade, 18 new, 3 to remove.

Half the packages are LibQT6something or LibKF6 something lol

Very dumb question, but I'm kinda new to Linux. Do I have to manually update that or does it just do it when I update packages and the like? I'm on Arch btw.
😆
What's so funny? Like I said, I'm new to Linux.
One of us! One of us!
It does it automatically.
But make sure to read the Arch news before every update, especially when it's a lot of packages. Something big like a new KDE Release might require minor manual intervention.
I'm more of an "update first, care later" type of person
And it works great, 100% recommended to newbies
Oh and make a separate home partition, just in case
I've literally only read the news the 1 or 2 times there was a breaking change during an update. Blindly updating (non-AUR) has served me fine for over 10 years
I just update, never had an issue.
Just read the output of yay/pacman and you’ll be fine.
There's no way you're so new to Linux that you wouldn't know if that would update automatically yet you're running Arch btw. That's like saying, "Do I need to do oil changes on my car? I built my engine, btw."
all you have to do to "run" arch is type out some lines from a YouTube video and press enter. With all the people saying "Arch! Arch!" at every corner it's totally understandable that someone would try it and still be confused on basic stuff.
Nah, there's a bunch of people (even on Lemmy) that recommend Arch or Arch-derived distributions to newbies. Many mention they haven't used any other distro themselves.
Arch stereotype is over with archinstall and direct step by step tutorial. You don't need to know how new release get updated to install arch
On linux, generally everything you install is through a centralized repository, you can think of it as an app store, arch is all entirely updated through pacman, pacman is just a command line way to interact with the app store.
In general, almost everything you install with pacman will update when you do
pacman -Syu(and restart, in case of kernel updates). The way packages work, all the files needed for a piece of software to function are installed from a package, and when you install a newer version, it removes all the files from the old version and puts in new ones. (Caveats apply to configuration files you can modify - those don't get replaced if you do)So after you update some software through pacman, it should be in an entirely clean state, just like if you just installed it. The main caveats apply to things like flatpak, which manage its own packages, and software like Steam and Discord, which have an additional auto-updater for some things that's storing files separately.
You update and then the entire system breaks (because Arch)
I am not sure if anyone answered your question in a way that you were expecting so let me try
yes you will get the update but you might not know it because your config wont change, so you have to go into the theme settings and use the "default" to see the pretty
New to arch and new to Linux:
Install a yogurt, or yet another one!
