Still see people making this argument on the .ml news thread about the debate lmao. These people are delusional
You could also just run android apps on Linux using Waydroid or Anbox and avoid having to use a neutered spyware system
They’re mostly in SBCs and dev systems right now. I know StarFive makes RISC V SBCs, and I think Pine64 has a RISC V tablet and SBC available. It’s all pretty low end and intended for dev work from what I can tell though
Well Rocky can contribute, but they’d have to send their patch to CentOS stream and hope it gets merged, then wait for Red Hat to implement the changes. So it’s more roundabout and ultimately is dependent on Red Hat
It’s not nearly as supported. There are workarounds where you can create a ~/.gtk4 directory and modify CSS yourself, or you can use a program like Gradience to modify the color scheme in an accessible way. Gradience also has community color palettes so if you’re using a popular theme it could just be a matter of loading the preset
It’s definitely a rabbit hole and it took me a few tries to stick with it, but after getting off the ground I don’t think I could ever go back.
Here are some helpful resources for using NixOS:
This video helped me understand the basic setup of flakes and home manager, as well as general NixOS syntax.
This site from Nix lets you look up every package on the repository, and if you click options at the top you can also search through every option related to your system and packages as well.
If you decide to use home manager for declaring user packages and dotfiles, I have been using this site which is similar to the official Nix search but specifically for home manager stuff.
Hope it helps :)
Helix text editor has been in my rotation recently, I like it a lot as a regular nvim user.
Just migrated from Arch to NixOS recently. Nix+Flakes+Home-manager define my entire system, including config files and pinned package versions, using three files. My system has never felt more stable and reproducible. I even found a flake which lets you declaratively manage Flatpaks (nix-flatpak).
If you use signal, the fork Molly has UP support now
