mastodon tells me trans culture is being eaten alive by nix and guix
I love Nix. Arch is great, and I've used it before, but I love how easily I can just commit my Nix config to a hit repo and save my work after Ive spent 5 hours configuring every app with a pastel color scheme.
yeah every time I make some tweak to fix an issue in Arch I'm just like "I will never remember this, if my SSD dies all this effort is just gone"
i will admit here that i use garuda because i wanna use arch but not install and configure arch
I installed EndeavourOS the other day for exactly this reason. It's really great not to have to spend like a full ass day configuring a desktop environment. I've already done that plenty, thanks!
Installations 1-3 are a slog, #4 is when it starts to hit right.
tbh it isn't too bad, it almost felt a bit uhhhh cosplay-hardcore-ish? idk how to describe. There's a big thing made about you having to configure the network, which you definitely do, but other than that everything seems to basically work out of the box.
Of course things can go wrong, which they did in my case (dual-boot issues with windows & linux affecting the network card) which made it so I took a full week to get to a decent install. So yeah there's that.
I ran Nix for a few months but I went back to Arch because it just didn't feel right. My biggest issue/complaint being the whole filesystem hierarchy standard being thrown out the window, and yes I am aware of
buildFHSUserEnv, but it just feels so wrong.I 100% agree, ran Nix for a few months until I switched back to Arch. Nix was cool, and having a declarative config was great, but in the end it became too much hassle. Arch just works.
