He thought it's not possible to install nix on silverblue and another commenter tried to install it on secureblue. It's not possible there. The problem is either somewhere along the supply chain (ublue) or with secure blue

Thx but that doesn't make it more consumer ready. If someone looks the first time into gnome and he can't add his location he might think GNOME is bad because it can't even handle weather.
It's easier to create an alias to curl wttr.in/Berlin
and access weather data from terminal than using the workaround
Boring silverblue 40
Sorry, faster because installing a package is faster than with other managers since you don'5 have to deal with any copr, debs or anything and it's really fast on my install. I haven't compared it directly but it feels very fast.
I didn't disable selinux

I'd like to know if it works for you now. I only ran the commands from the post and everything worked ootb
That's probably why I gave up on it back then as well
Why does it work on my machine? I'm on silverblue

It's faster than distrobox, it's not within a box but on host, it's easier than most package managers. I still go for flatpak first but for everything else I use nix. Especially for programming environment it looks to be much better than distrobox
Fuck. That's genious. I type it new every time. I'll test it, thx!
