Exactly, that's why I'm considering it here

GeechanOP•4/28/24, 4:54 AM

It's rock solid

Astral•4/28/24, 4:55 AM

My 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

Astral•4/28/24, 4:55 AM

And if I REALLY need something that low level I can just rpm-ostree it

Daph•4/28/24, 4:55 AM

plus if you want you can make a custom image based on bazzite with bluebuild or the template repository and add in anything you want

Astral•4/28/24, 4:55 AM

Oh shit what

Astral•4/28/24, 4:55 AM

That's epic

GeechanOP•4/28/24, 4:55 AM

Bluebuild is very strong

Astral•4/28/24, 4:56 AM

Yeah no I can see why people are calling atomic distros the future

GeechanOP•4/28/24, 4:56 AM

That being said you can already do a lot with Bazzite itself

Astral•4/28/24, 4:57 AM

And 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

Hex•4/28/24, 4:57 AM

tbh

VValerie I tried installing NixOS yesterday

Kyle Gospo•4/28/24, 4:57 AM

sorry

Astral•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

Lmao

Astral•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

I took one look at the nix docs

Astral•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

And just went

GeechanOP•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

NixOS is for masochists

Astral•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

"Oh hell to the fuck no"

KKyle Gospo sorry

Valerie•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

I gave up after I couldn't get my cursor to look right in firefox. A pre-installed app.

Astral•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

oh my god

Hex•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

remember

Astral•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

but yeah it's like, nix is one of those things where I look at it and go

GeechanOP•4/28/24, 4:58 AM

I wanted to get away from the massive configuration headache of Arch, not make it much worse lol

Astral•4/28/24, 4:59 AM

"how do people use this"

Hex•4/28/24, 4:59 AM

NixOS, not Nix PM

Astral•4/28/24, 4:59 AM

YEAH LMAO

Hex•4/28/24, 4:59 AM

Astral•4/28/24, 4:59 AM

like 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

Astral•4/28/24, 4:59 AM

but it was like

wolfyreload•4/28/24, 4:59 AM

I 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.

Astral•4/28/24, 4:59 AM

"ok sweet never doing this again"

Valerie•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

I use aurora-dx on my school laptop, just installed bluefin-gx on my personal laptop to give GNOME another go

Astral•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

"who is the target market for this"

GeechanOP•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

Masochists

Astral•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

true

AAstral "who is the target market for this"

Valerie•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

People who need reproducability

Hex•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

I hate and love gnome

Valerie•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

If you was for whatever reason deploying NixOS, it'd be insanely good

Hex•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

hate cause GTK4 is pain

Hex•4/28/24, 5:00 AM

love cause its sleek

GeechanOP•4/28/24, 5:01 AM

But yeah if you're willing to sink in a lot of time to create a perfect reproducible config then Nix can be of benefit

Astral•4/28/24, 5:01 AM

the last thing I want to be doing is writing a million billion script files to make everything exactly how I want it. I know some people are into that and that's fine but I dunno I like actually USING my computer

Hex•4/28/24, 5:01 AM

but also hate cause it feels like a touch tablet every time I use it

HHex I hate and love gnome

Valerie•4/28/24, 5:01 AM

I've always been KDE
