    But compiled on some other machine. Compiling on your own hardware optimizes it for that specific hardware and what that chip supports etc.

      No, AUR packages are compiled on your machine.

        Ah, thought you meant in the AUR. I’m used to OBS where you have binaries and source available (OBS meaning OpenBuildService, not the screen recorder)
