I switched from conda to mamba a while ago and never looked back (it's probably saved dozens of hours from waiting for conda's slow as molasses package resolution). I'm looking at the latest docs and it doesn't look like there's any deprecation messages or anything (it does warn against installing mamba inside of conda, but that's been the case for a long time): https://mamba.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/mamba-installation.html https://mamba.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/mamba-in...
It looks like miniforge is still the recommended install method, but also the anchor has changed in the repo docs, which I've updated, thx. FWIW, I haven't run into any problems using mamba. While I'm not a power user, so there are edge cases I might have missed, but I have over 35 mamba envs on my dev machine atm, so it's definitely been doing the job for me and remains wicked fast (if not particularly disk efficient).
- rahimnathwani 3y agoI had somehow missed the introduction of mamba, and have been using the default conda solver (which I think is the 'classic' one). Apparently conda now supports using the mamba solver: https://www.anaconda.com/blog/a-faster-conda-for-a-growing-community https://www.anaconda.com/blog/a-faster-conda-for-a-growing-c... conda update -n base conda conda install -n base conda-libmamba-solver conda config --set solver libmamba
