New to linux, have fedora, coming from mac os background where I was using brew ... and I'm watching a lot of vids to see if I can answer this question: Should one only use one package manager strictly, i.e. will you mess yourself up by using more than one, like apt and dnf ? thanks for taking time to answer a newbie question

trying to get a solid answer to the following question. Can one get themselves into trouble using multiple package managers? Should one force themselves use a single package manager ? Or is it okay to use multiple, like dnf and apt ? I guess ... indirectly, I am asking if you install something wth apt .. does yum know about it ... and vice versa
For Arch just do “pacman -Rs ” to remove the package and it’s dependencies all on one go.
what's -Rs ?
I use -Rcns. I think it also removes its config files.
You the only one who said I can cuz you did it, well, it is true cuz I did it too. Thanks to this channel and your crew. Sincerely
One Word - Debian ❤️!!!
Thank you so much for this video. Your approach is absolutely fantastic.
Thank you, it was very helpful
Hi Jay, you are just superb!! Thanks for the great videos!!
Why should I not create a script that periodically runs `apt autoremove`? (assuming that's possible) When do I NOT want to run this?

Is it safe to use "autoremove" command on Debian/ubuntu all the time? How it will identify which packages are not needed?
Yes, it is safe to use autoremove. Any packages which are installed automatically as dependencies for deleted packages alone will be deleted.
After you installed or updated something on Debian based distros the terminal might tell you to use this command to remove useless packages.

When you install packages how do you know the proper name? I feel using search is inconsistent and unintuitive, any tips? Thank you.
really great content, thanks
could have quickly explain what those apt dnf short for
Thank you man 🤗
the apr-util 1.6.1-8 and apr 1.7.0-3 packages are orphans because you deleted their parent
What I just learned is that debians package management couldn't be any easier if they tried.
Pacboy anyone ? Broken again. Sid is still fine, as usual
Like.
Su dough is the pronunciation. Or sue dow
pacman -Rsc package_name
Why are you using Pacman and not yay?
pacman is official package manager for arch. yay, paru.. etc are aur helper. And you can install packages from aur even without aur helpers
