Nice. 2GB is just an awkward amount of ram so I feel you. I have 16GB on my desktop but most of the time I use between 2 and 3 GB. The browser being the main customer of course. So 2GB is just a bit short of being comfy. Good luck.
Speed of a package manager should never be a major concern nowadays.
I would like to disagree with this. It's not just updates. Sometimes I add and remove a bunch of packages back to back to test stuff out or check soft dependencies or pull/remove dependencies for projects I am checking out and compiling or switch between prepackaged/compiled versions. For example I was once testing the difference between wine and wine-stable-ubuntu in combination with winetricks installed/uninstalled. That is four configurations and you might visit each one more than once. I once saw a classmate use the fedora package manager in real life and I thought it was quite slow. I am happy with pacman, it really rips through packages which is convenient.
I guess that is pretty funny, didn't notice it while writing lol. When it comes to those seams, I think it depends on your font whether it will have seams or not. Colouring the background is more consistent in my experience.
I tried fastfetch which was very fast, but didn't work correctly for me. It told me I had 16 flatpaks installed, but I don't even have flatpak! On another preset it gave the wrong number of pacman packages installed. The coloured bars also rendered with visible seams in between because it uses characters instead of colouring the background. It also didn't show my terminal font at all. I can't open issues because I didn't bother to activate 2fa on my github account. I ended up writing a simple fetch for fun, it shows pacman and rust packages, learned a few things about terminal escape codes.
