Any time I’ve ever used pacman to kill my system, it was my fault, usually because I either didn’t read the news and missed a manual intervention, or because I didn’t read the instructions before doing something. Don’t play fast and loose with root.
Actually tbh, pacman has saved my installations in a chroot environment more than a few times
I think you’re confused. It’s really easy to use. You have to learn 3–4 command line flags instead of subcommands, but that’s all that separates it from others in usage patterns.
No one fears pacman unless they have to use it.
What’s wrong with pacman? I love pacman!
It’s never eaten your system’s bootability yet?

What I really love about telling someone their favorite package updating tool is shit. Is someone trying to tell me I’m confused.
That or both wrong and an asshole. I was trying to be charitable.
