😁 I still never had an app that I wanted requiring it, but I’m very happy having it as quick temporary solution if I ever stumble over an app that does not run on Arch yet (In such cases I would try to fix the AUR package 😇)
Just had an example of this working for me. Parsec only publishes a .deb file, and the flatpak is out of date / unmaintained. They don’t have Nvidia decoding anywhere but Ubuntu. But with distrobox / boxbuddy I can get a fully-featured parsec install that runs on a distrobox. Works perfectly, and even has an application in my host application menu. It’s bad ass
Ah, yea, that is one of the reasons I don’t like APT… 😂
Yup, but now I get to use whatever distro I want with distrobox. It’s awesome

😁i can do just “yay parsec” and install it
I meant for bazzite. You can use an arch distrobox and it’ll be like you had arch installed already
