It doesn't make any difference. Gentoo and NixOS have the same concept. They are holistic systems not designed for multiple permanent changes. I've used Gentoo, it's as much fun as building everything from FreeBSD ports. But some users install the OS to get work done, not to constantly tinker with the system, so now I choose NixOS.

You can choose a lucky number chmod 777/

Home manager and flakes is something optional in today's NixOS. I don't see any obvious use for a single-user home system. Of course, many people go the flakes-setup route. NixOS has many customization options, up to and including docker installation.

Oh, it's very simple. Home-manager is something not yet finalized, optional and unofficial. Flakes was added in Nix 2.4, but you don't have to use it all. You don't want to add unnecessary complications. You can do without home-manager and flakes on a single-user machine. This is just one of the system configuration options. I have tried deploying the system with flakes/home-manager, done it with docker and even with nix-env. The performance gain is not noticeable.

This is the first time in 25 years of using Linux that I've changed distributions.

You're exaggerating a little bit. Reddit is more alive than alive.

Fish can be bloated, too.

Tech conservative, because I use FreeBSD, Surf browser, IRC...

I can't understand where you find so much porn.

Does anyone know where I can see porn that cats make?

Young people love confusing terms. So the words sound more mysterious. "Bolsheviks" began to be called after the II Congress of the RSDLP group, which received a majority in the elections to the Central Committee of the party. The Bolsheviks sought to create a party of professional revolutionaries, while the Mensheviks feared the criminalization of the party and tended to legitimate methods of struggle against autocracy (reformism).

Anarchism (from ancient Greek. Anarchism (ἀναρχία, from ἀν- "without-" and ἀρχή "beginning; superiority; power") is a general name for a number of systems of views based on human freedom and denying the need for coercive government and human authority over man. Therefore, "anarchobolsheviks" is nonsense .

I remember the "we are adults, not revolutionaries" entry in r/freebsd. After that, the subreddit administration decided to leave things as they were.

I don't understand the point raised by R. Stallman about using only free software. Because for most of us the PC is a working tool, but in no way a religious toy.

Thank God I didn't give in to herd instinct and delete my Reddit account. I did that four times in a row, and I don't play those games anymore. I didn't sign up for a subject that is foreign to me, especially since in my opinion the alternative apps work worse than the official one, and the lack of video downloads doesn't bother me because I don't watch porn. My Reddit stays the way it was. The FreeBSD and Slackware communities and a couple or three others have sane members.

Is this one of the endless hints that there is no karma in Lemmy? Have you seen the little up and down arrows under every post and comment? One of my comments recently got forty-five down arrows and I'll see how many dislikes this comment gets.

The lists of smartphones on the Postmarket OS and UBPorts websites can be used as a basis. Theoretically, you can use for experiments phones that come with alternative firmware directly from the factory. OnePlus, for example. You could buy a Pinephone and experiment with mobile Linux.

The creators of Lemmy keep telling us about the "federation" of the social network. A federation is something that has a federal center that exercises a governing function.

Just because we all have not been informed of the existence of such a center does not mean that it does not exist.

To dziwna aplikacja. W newsfeedzie ciągle pojawiają się rzeczy, których nie subskrybowałem. Ustawienia w aplikacji mobilnej nie są zapisywane. Utworzyłem jedno konto na serwerze, które mi na to pozwalało. Działa, ale wpisy na lemmy ml , beehav i innych nie są dostępne do komentowania. Taka "federacja".

Give it some time

I heard that story somewhere. It took Reddit fifteen years to become comfortable using it. Are you ready to wait?

You'd be surprised. If you update on impulse, there is a great risk that pacman will break your system. There are clever people who don't update Arch for half a year and then start upgrading it overnight. This is even worse, because the risk of your system dying from an accident increases many times over. Good thing I don't use Arch btw for work. Although no, Arch+dwm is on my old netbook, but I can't find it for a long time.
