I used to be on Arch before Fedora Kinoite, quite the change lol
I used to be on Arch before Fedora Kinoite, quite the change lol
AThe only reason my system shat the bed here was because I did a DNF upgrade without knowing one of my dimms was partially unseated and it broke all my stuff whoopsie
GA big change but a very welcome one
AThat's not really Fedora's fault tho, that's the fault of the fact that DIMM slots still suck in 2024
DI was also an arch and later opensuse tumbleweed user for a long time. I can't see myself going back to a non-atomic system anytime soon if ever
DPlus, custom OCI images are so damn cool
ACan literally leave a computer on my desk and overtime the ram just somehow finds it's way slightly out of the dimm slot and causes problems
GSee on Atomic Fedora you would still have a working system if that were to happen. Updates only go through when the entire Image updates, and you always have a backup image available
AExactly, that's why I'm considering it here
GIt's rock solid
AMy initial worry was "b-but my repos" but again I can just... Distrobox stuff and that can even integrate into the desktop now it's so well done
AAnd if I REALLY need something that low level I can just rpm-ostree it
Dplus if you want you can make a custom image based on bazzite with bluebuild or the template repository and add in anything you want
AOh shit what
AThat's epic
GBluebuild is very strong
KAYeah no I can see why people are calling atomic distros the future
GThat being said you can already do a lot with Bazzite itself
AAnd it helps that Bazzite and UBlue/Fedora Atomic in general feels like atomic made by relatively sane people LMFAO.
Look I got nothing against nixOS users but I just feel like I'd go insane if I was using something like that

VI gave up after I couldn't get my cursor to look right in firefox. A pre-installed app.
Aoh my god
Hremember
Abut yeah it's like, nix is one of those things where I look at it and go
GI wanted to get away from the massive configuration headache of Arch, not make it much worse lol
A"how do people use this"
HNixOS, not Nix PM
AYEAH LMAO
H
Alike Arch is one of those things I installed once from scratch (i.e not using the easy methods) because I just kinda wanted to say I'd done it
Abut it was like
WI tried aurora-dx the other day, DevPod is really cool and so nice having docker etc all pre-installed. I'm seriously contemplating switching to aurora-dx for my dev work.
A"ok sweet never doing this again"
AI took one look at NixOS and went
VI use aurora-dx on my school laptop, just installed bluefin-gx on my personal laptop to give GNOME another go
A"who is the target market for this"
GMasochists
