@leeloo@chaosfem.tw @spacehobo@teh.entar.net @pafurijaz@mastodon.social I prefer use doas. But, if there is KDE, I must keep sudo, but I don't use it. It's my personal computer. Servers don't have desktop environments. In fact, I need the admin display challenge (that use sudo) when I change the theme for sddm, or lightm. For people whis computer managed by me, they use doas because I teach them, if I think I can allow them to make some admin task.

@leeloo@chaosfem.tw @lautreg@pouet.chapril.org @spacehobo@teh.entar.net @pafurijaz@mastodon.social True they should not depend on sudo, they should depend on 'whatever' defined by some config that could be sudo like $EDITOR. sudo is not 'critical infrastructure', just a means to elevate privilege. You can do this without sudo, its a convenience util and maybe not even the right way to do things. I don't really know what to say to "having to call helpdesk when you need a patch". Aaanyway I hope someone supports, perhaps someone that needs sudo.
