I didn't understand Linux package managers until everything broke — now I have one rule
For the longest time, I treated Linux package managers like a vending machine. Need an app? Install it. Need another one? Install that too. APT, Flatpak, Snap were mixed and match, and then sprinkled in a PPA or two. What could possibly go wrong? For a while, nothing did. And that was the problem. Because it gave me just enough confidence to keep going. Linux didn’t push back. It didn’t warn me. It didn’t pop up a helpful little message saying, “Hey, maybe don’t install three different versions of the same app from three different ecosystems.” It just … let me.
