> users needing to think about recompiling things is definitely not the experience they want
I think the intended OSS experience would be for users to get everything from their distro’s repository, whose packages get recompiled by the distro maintainer.
I agree this doesn’t work in practice, but there’s a reason Debian tells people to only ever use packages from their official repos.
