Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    you let arch behind and use distros like debian.

    does using nixos count ;-;

    It is, if your priorities are to tinker even more with your computer. (nix configs, etc.) :)

    Using non-tech analogy, it is like having a "project car" to tinker with and a "daily driver" to get to and from work, if you are a car enthusiast.

    Yes, but for example I find the steam deck actually buggier than NixOS

    Just look at all the posts about the "discover" app crashing

    But isn't that behavior actually documented in the Arch wiki? At least when you manually install it, it lists packagekit-qt6 as being "not recommended".

    As far as I can tell, I'm just using it to install flatpaks so it should work fine

    I said I lt elsewhere already. The maturing "I use arch btw" crowd is steadily migrating to NixOS. In a few years at most .the meme will be "I use nixOS btw".

    NixOS is build on a really cool and impressive concept imho. Did you know an OpenBSD developer did like NixOS a lot ? https://dataswamp.org/~solene/
