I haven't tried NixOS, but the whole "maintaining your own config" part seems like both a blessing and a curse
Aawesome until it's not
Anot to say that Bazzite doesn't have hiccups either
Abut overall it's been pretty great so far for me
AI was thinking about something like nixos but my os is so stable now
AI like the declarative nature of NixOS but it really expects you to be able to maintain it long-term once something changes and possibly breaks your system
AThat you know it's not that useful
Zits a blessing until you need to write flakes 
AAnd with stuff like bazzite being like 6gb and coming with everything everyone would need it's like come on
Abazzite using OCI images means I should be able to create or modify a dockerfile to create a custom base OS, right?
Tit really isnt that hard tho you can figure it out with a nice tutorial
Aublue using OCI images seems a bit similar to nixOS in some ways
Adifferent ways to obtain reproducible builds
AYou could even port Batocera over to ublue if you ever wanted to
ZThe language is fine itself, rather is just the amount of bloat.
Tbloat?
Ni wonder if someone made a nix-based distro that uses nix to build oci images then run that on ostree
Ni have no idea what the practical purpose of that would be
Nso, it's a blessing?
ZAlso the nix filetree shenanigans and a lot of small issues
ZAt a very basic level is fine.
N
Ni do not need to use a flake based config
ZAnother issue is the documentation that is not in a simple single page, cuz now reading this, would have solved a lot of my issues
Ni like it personally
Nif you aren't me and don't reformat a partition without updating the hardware config you won't have problems
KIt's built-in on every image
KIncluding testing
KGoverlay was the only thing temporarily dropped
Hoh its temporarily dropped, cool
KRight, surface and framework images are dead
KAnd I'm hoping to kill Asus here soon too
KAlready restored on testing
Aif people want fan curves and charge limiting with simpledeckytdp they need asusctl
KYeah, I'm planning to keep that, but just install it a different way
KLikely as a systemd sysext
Abe careful with that it locks the fs
Alol

goverlay returning, so if you layered it, make sure you remove it before updating to 40 when it releases

Ahow does that work with secure boot
Ais only the kernel affected?
KIf you don't touch the kernel you can continue to use it exactly as it is now
Adoes that upload the whole image?
KYes, you're making your own on GitHub
Aor only the extension layers
