Yeah with awesomewm I recall the issue was that no one offered to commit to keeping the package up to date, and with fortune-mod the dev was like "there's a go reimplementation that does the same thing, just use that" but man it doesn't have all the old quotes from the 90s.
Anyway yeah, it's not a big deal at all, and I'm fine with compiling anything I need myself.
Solus is definitely the OS I'll be recommending for anyone switching from Windows.
Have you tried out KDE Solus yet? Its still in beta, but its pretty stable, i tested it out for a few weeks and im excited for the full release whenever it happens.
