Me!!

I stopped using it a while ago, and I get all my non arch packaged packages from nixpkgs. Nixpkgs is bigger than the AUR and the Arch repos combined. It has pretty much all of the stuff I would have otherwise gotten from the AUR. But I find Nixos frustrating to use, so I stick to Arch.

I felt extremely vindicated in my decision to avoid the AUR when the AUR malware happened.
