Ah, yes the memories. I followed it pretty closely, happily forgot most of it. I’m somehow reminded of Groklaw.

I have used it as a daily driver. My biggest issue was the nix language. If I was to go back, I would invest more time in learning nix.

RIP. A legend.

Only 59. Interesting guy. Haven’t followed him much since the 90s

I’m playing this on my Steam Deck too. Super enjoyable. Love the game mechanics, the atmosphere and the art style.

Same here. I’m not going back to reddit either. I’m loving the Fediverse. There is plenty of content for me.

I agree with this. I find both numbers interesting, but the total number of subscribers seems more interesting than the local number.

Awesome! Excited to try this as soon as I get my deck.

Not using it anymore. Although I’m thinking about going back to it. The NixOS learning curve is a bit more steep than most other distros.

Yes absolutely. It is really great. It is also a source of frustration, e.g., missing configuration options, non-obvious options and so on. Overall it works well.

I used NixOS for a couple of years. My experience is like this:

1. It is a rolling release (mostly)
2. You write a declarative configuration for your system, e.g., my config will say I want Neovim with certain plugins, and I can also include my Neovim configuration
3. It is stable, and when it breaks it is easy to go back
4. Packages are mostly bleeding edge
