hahahaha nice. I hope I don't have to dual boot windows. My laptop is fast enough for VMs

[-] MischievousTomato@lemdro.id 1 points 1 year ago

I never went back to windows. I had my stuff in a separate partition so when I went back to Fedora or Arch, I had my stuff there

Your 2 big positives are stuff I agree with wholeheartedly. But I'm still holding out on using flatpak because it feels like an incomplete solution still. There's many things with it I could work around, definitely, but it feels annoying and with NixOS I don't have to worry about those issues because stuff just works for me.

As for FS, I wanted to love it, but doing some stuff with it is annoying. I wish it let you install stuff with dnf to /usr/local (like how it is on bsds or also macs with brew iirc).

Organizing my thoughs: I would love a future where flatpak just works, the sandboxing is nice and all you need is to click "yes" or "no" when an app wants/needs something, where you don't even need to use your distro's package manager (or you can't even use it because the distro is immutable and it updates on its own), but we're not yet there. Installing fonts on FS was a nightmare, and I had to layer stuff like powertop and other stuff I don't remember right now. Also flatpak isn't yet a good solution for development with VScode or similar stuff.

That's not the point, because it's not what the OP asked for

If you're gonna be like that I could also suggest to OP to move to Windows or MacOS 🤷‍♂️

Xiaomi and Motorola are still out there making new phones that have usbc and use usb2.0 inside them

[-] MischievousTomato@lemdro.id 16 points 1 year ago

I mean, sure, it works... But USBC would also just work. They already use it on their laptops (with them being huge proponents of thunderbolt and USBC), and iPads.

google has a dumbass @ the helm

Sort of. On the fediverse I saw that they are mostly just defederated, because the insults and stuff they can hurl far surpasses anything that someone on twitter/facebook/etc can say.

For many it's a radical change in paradigm, and I assume many just want to understand it well

[-] MischievousTomato@lemdro.id 3 points 1 year ago

I wish I knew. I learned of it and started playing with it last year, with me using it full time since Feb of 2023, with a couple of hopping and then coming back to NixOS
