Users can already do so, what would instance-level block bring?
I'll let you compare the nix 2.4 manual page (https://web.archive.org/web/20211201073051/https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-flake.html) with the current one (https://nixos.org/manual/nix/stable/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-flake.html).
The flakes interface of nix may change in the future, and you should be prepared to update your code, documentation etc. if and when that happens. Consider flakes have been around since nix 2.4 and the interface haven't drastically changed since then. If that risk sounds acceptable to you, then do use it :)
There is an ongoing effort to get flakes away from the experimental category, but as you may guess, it is a big chunk to stabilize all at once. The original RFC was closed https://github.com/NixOS/rfcs/pull/49 a long while ago, due to it describing the experimental feature, and not the final one. AFAIK, there's no "one" RFC being discussed on finalizing an initial stable version of flakes (but I could swear I've heard of one).
One could make the argument that 5000 users is still not mass adoption. If that is enough activity, then mass adoption is not a requirement for the fediverse to be a nice social place to be.
All 35 of us :d
@Danatious@lemmy.world ? I start typing @Dana… and then I get a popup to autocomplete with the user name
I shouldn't have generalized, my bad. Let me rephrase: they are on my blacklist. Mainly because I get jumped by popups every time I try and focus to read something nice somebody wrote there…
Speaking of sucking… Medium is on the blacklist.
Now we just need to wait and see if Reddit takes the bait and joins the fediverse too, as an attempt to stop hemorraging users. grabs popcorn
Is it so desirable to sent even more info, this time potentially non-public, if you decide to interact with the other instance?
This includes partial information about your online identity, namely identifying you uniquely. Not all instances should be considered trustworthy, so your log-in token may get re-used by a malicious instance to post things in your name here and there. Kind of a silly situation, favorable to spammers for example.
