I'm sure no one in this community needs to be convinced to try Linux. But I love it every time I see a non-Linux person trying Linux and showing other people that it works. (Also nice to see that Jeff Gerstmann is still around and doing alright after getting screwed over by Gamespot for like 15 years.)

Use paru to install software :) search online for aur software-name, and then install with paru -S name-from-aur-website. Paru also has search, but I don't remember the syntax :)

Paru, aur and yay came up when I did some googling. I was left even more confused.

Did you try, I don't know, reading more about the options?

Jesus Christ. You are not helpless.
