That might be true, but WebKit anywhere other than safari performed horrible for me.

Hmmm nah. I'm not editing. I'll stand by it.
Absolutely! I can't believe when I stumbled across it in 2020 that it was as old as it is. And folks think it's too old and decrepit to use, it's inanely powerful.
I've been using it for over a year and love it. A config file for your entire system, and built in rollbacks anytime something goes wrong. One language to configure everything, although in practice that doesn't always work. But I love it.
Some others have started why it works, here is some how. Nixos completely disregards the fhs. Packages don't install to anywhere standard, every package and configuration change gets it's on directory in /nix/store but through smart use of tracking everything there, it symlinks all those files to proper places and sets up the environment for them to know where libraries are.
This is then also why you don't need sudo privileges to install things. Your profile has an environment that is aware of your users packages and configurations, the system itself isn't effected because everything is symlinked.
Then because every update means new directories in /nix/store you can role back to your last configuration because plasma broke something or whatever.
However, it's a LOT to learn. Best place I know of is https://piped.video/watch?v=AGVXJ-TIv3Y&t=0
This guy did a good job for me. Hope this helps!
This needs so much more noise! If only some of us were part of major news channels, more shareholders need to know now that reddit is in IPO process. It'll hurt bad.
Absolutely! Nix seems to like the approach of do it their way, unless you don't want to. Then do it your way! Lol
I love NixOS on the server! Run my non profit that way. It's beautiful really, everything is declared and then you commit that to version control and it's 100% reproducible. Just backup your data.
I would add that you can still do containers like docker, if you really want I believe there is a way to declare your containers too. It's really awesome what NixOS can do.
I self host vaultwarden which is more lightweight but compatible with all the apps server part.
This sounds awesome!
I didn't even know about soap2day. I've been using sonarr and radarr to acquire media and then play it from jellyfin.
Please do! I'm about to get it running next week for my lunch break gaming sessions.
Except that's what happened with xmpp. Google and WhatsApp and Facebook all used to be xmpp. Once they had most their users they started ignoring the protocol and people who had regular xmpp servers we're viewed as weird by the rest of society since they couldn't see certain things and then to "fix" that, Google and Facebook stopped interoperating with xmpp and people said "hurray, no more broken stuff, thank you our giant tech overlords!"
