fastfetch | grep ackag
Packages: 3582 (dpkg), 17 (flatpak)

    Grepping "ackag" is super cursed

    why? if I do Package/package/packages/Packages it's likely not to hit if it doesn't match the letter case correctly or if I added the s when it shouldn't be there.

    it's definitely going to hit ackag , and I don't have to write as much.

    It definitely will work and is efficient, it just feels cursed

    I'd to just run <command> | grep -i "package", feels more intuitive for me.

    But again, nothing wrong with how you did it, just feels unnatural to me

    -i, --ignore-case Ignore case distinctions in patterns and input data, so that characters that differ only in case match each other.

    Oh , would you look at that. Great. What's the quotes do?
