This explanation is awesome

I recently tried NixOS, I'm a embedded firmware dev so I need certain special SDKs that rely on being installed in a specific way. My biggest problem was that some things needed to be able to run pip install in the background, and understanding how to get it to work on an imutable OS was way to much work.

It sounds great to be able to reproduce my dev environment for the rest of my team, but I need to work, not fiddle with the OS each time there's a new SDK or driver I need for my IoT devices.

I may try again in the future, but the project I'm working on is on a heavy time crunch so Ubuntu will have to continue to be enough for now 😆

What's lemmy link?

A lot of ppl tried to make it sound like a contest, and see who could do it, it was everything anyone talked about for a couple of days 🤷😂

Wow that's awesome looking, thx for the link!

In the beginning of the migration there was a guy that asked for help on how to not poop for 3 or some days and would not tell anyone why, this sparked a bunch of memes, I don't have any to link but they should be easy to find if one is interested.

I should probably have mentioned as well that the inconvenience of having multiple apps are a bigger hurdle for my family then the cost, as that pushes us towards things like Plex where the kids could find everything in one app

Those are all good points and I'm happy you replied, as it will probably help other who read this 😊

However I already have a Plex server for my older media (VHS 😅 tapes) that I have converted to digital, that's hosted on my NAS, and lifetime Plex pass. I have been meaning to look into open source replacements but many older smart tvs only have Plex 🤷

Great though!

That's a good thought and would probably work if I lived alone and only watched one thing at a time.

But I would say it depends on your use case and the size of your household. We are 4 ppl in my family that watch different content on the same TV at different times of the day. We have Netflix (the wife's show is here), Disney (kids), HBO (me), Viaplay (family movies in my native language when we all watch together). I have been sharing thease accounts with my brothers family but we are about to move to Plex, I would rather buy DVD or digital releases and host it myself then use all thease subscriptions.

If they would price it better, could work together and all be used in the same interface on my tv then maybe I would be willing to go back.

I have not heard of this movie yet, is it appropriate for children?

Ah I see 😊 Thx for the tldr!
