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.

Have you heard anything about uBlock origin, Ghostery and similar programs?

Fish can be bloated, too.

Hello buzzer. IRC ( Internet Relay Chat ) is an application layer protocol for real-time messaging. One of the oldest messengers.

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

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.

Lemmy sprawls thanks to his dislike of Reddit’s new rules. This is both a virtue and a problem at the same time. Reading 1,000 “Reddit is about to fall apart” posts or copies of old Reddit posts is quite tedious. Oh yeah, there’s also the defederation announcements, it’s even more tedious to read that nonsense. Guys, you have not had time to consolidate, and already arranging a rant.

Xiaomi Mi10 Lite with stock firmware. Xiaomi QIN22F as a second phone. I’ve tried some third-party Android variations, but none of them, including LineageOS, I liked to use. Or rather I liked LineageOS when it was still CyanogwenMod, and then, as usual, everything went wrong.

all pathological downvoters will stay there

The pathological downvoters ran from Reddit first. They missed fresh blood.

When Reddit collapses for good, it will be the end of Lemmy. There will be nothing to talk about, no subject to talk about.

I won’t even respond to your juggling with my words. I’m lazy. You’ll start taking my phrases out of context again and the discussion will devolve into an empty argument. Surely your parents didn’t let you use the internet (if you were born then) when Google turned off all third party apps from the popular Google Talk back then. You probably don’t remember when Facebook and WhatsApp did the same thing. All social networks and messengers are going through this kind of production optimization and no one is making a big deal out of it. And in conclusion: I used fediverse when it was not yet mainstream. And now I have to admire the yelling of Reddit refugees.

I’ll be honest with you. I don’t care about mass upvotes and mass downvotes. These are the weapons of pimply emo leftists, not adults.

I think I saw this photo on Reddit a year ago.

So what? I can open my sub and put Nancy Pelosi’s ass on it.

It all depends on your sense of humor.

No one forces you to pay, ads are easily blocked.

Your acrimonious talk is happening because you realize that Steve Huffman is acting legitimately, but not the way you want him to.

And that no one is going to ask you in this argument.

Maybe 50% of the subs closed, but 50% stayed.

And you’re left in a half-empty Lemmy and jerking off to the fall of Reddit.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Do you think this is the end of your “journey”?

I’ve gotten used to Slackware in 25 years.
