Maybe so. I use cachy just for the record, so I'm not piling on with linux hate. I'm just enjoying the madness of it all. :)
FYI, CachyOS is Arch based. It has access to the AUR. If you weren't effected, that proves the point.
The AUR is a repository of last resort. It's useful, but you should be careful. That's true even before this even. It's a repository made by users, and is not verified.
CachyOS not only is Arch, it uses packages from AUR out of the box
Crazy self own my guy
