    What software only works on Arch? If anything I see stuff that’s packaged for arch but can be installed from source on other distros without issue.

    Ubuntu-only software, on the other hand, is infuriating

        it actually is, you just append the distrobox command before it

        distrobox enter arch -- yay -Sy appname

          A simple yay -Sy from Arch btw takes less computing power and doesn’t depend on an external dependency.

            Any reason not to just use yay? That’s an alias for yay -Syu, which in and of itself, at least if I understood it correctly, is basically just pacman -Syu and from what I’ve read on the arch wiki -Sy is heavily discouraged.
