Pamac not showing packages from AUR or chaotic-aur

You’re right, there is more potential for error. I’ve had to manually roll back certain packages either through terminal or Snapper before. That being said, I moved to Linux from Windows and every other distro has a GUI for their respective package managers, so I just stayed used to that

And to reply to @fbodymechanic, pacseek looks sick! Actually for a bit I tried to make my own little GUI for pacman, but I quickly realized that even with help it’s very very complicated making something that looks decent and can handle packages, dependencies, installs/uninstalls, etc etc…
