As long as it's opt in I'd happily give user data to improve ui\ux. But it doesn't seem like it is so good!
Oh for fucks sake. Why must enshitification come for everything
Is it enshitification if it was shit all along?
Screams in SSL
Pre installs an AUR helper
Delays base packages so AUR ones break
DDOS AUR
On the one hand the AUR should be able to withstand an attack without going down.
On the other hand, you probably shouldn't be the one to cause the problem. I wouldn't be surprised if the AUR has a safeguards now.
If it defaults to dont send anything fine by me.
It's opt out
Personally I don't really mind opt out unless the choice isn't clearly presented to people for them to decide.
Like if during installation one of the steps is "share anonymized data" and the switch is in the on position by default, I really don't mind that. Usage data is massively helpful from a UI/UX perspective and in terms of user testing, doubly so for open source projects without as much resources for doing that kind of testing otherwise.
But if it's burried in a settings pannel somewhere, that sucks and doesn't respect user agency
Thats how I feel anyway 🤷♂️
Fuck em. Not that i use manjaro anyways
I do use it... Sad 😢😭
When it comes to Foss projects I would gladly give away my data for improvement of the project.
And what improvements could come from incompetent fucks knowing your hostname, mac adress, and other identifying information? Aside from improving their financial status that is...
But not to manjaro
