I unironically prefer apt over pacman, simply because my monkeybrain got addicted to running pacman -S (that was how to update, right?) and I dropped in productivity. apt is just "nah fam, there's nothing new for you" most days, which gives me the quiet time I want and need.

I ran Manjaro BTW. It was nice while it lasted, but Debian is my new friend now.

The difference here is more between release types, I think. Arch is rolling, so there are updates you can get every few minutes. Debian is a rock, and rocks aren't known for moving a lot.

(The command is sudo pacman -Syu btw)
