I call my desktop loseldoom but my servers are fugit and opti :P

Linux mint is in my opinion the best distro for a new user, but you may personally not be fond of the UI.

I don’t know how to write a guide for you, but if you have more specific questions feel free to ask them, best of luck!

I also have a 240hz but it works fine? I’ve never heard of this, although I still hate the nvidia drivers for many things

You pay and you’re still the product, they continue with all the tracking they do.

Home Manager on a NixOS flake, it’s a rabbit hole but I’ve been loving it since last week!

Just heard of it and I will definitely use it. Makes sense they have gone open source, you would need to trust giving out a lot of private data if it wasn’t, it’s an app meant to do everything.

I would love it on Piped, they already have sponsorblock

Ah I see, this is an old screenshot. Understandable have a great day

I love that Linux allows us to do this, but why

my eyes

Thank you so much for your example, I’m new to NixOS coming from arch and these are all very helpful.

The pizero won’t be able to run a matrix server most likely, but if you want you try anyway, use conduit.rs (matrix server that is more lightweight). The pizero probably wont be enough

Yes, updates work the same, I believe there might be a way to enable automatic updates too. And for flatpak I don’t know what you mean with “manually update”, usually you can just run “flatpak update” on the terminal and be fine, I don’t know Mint enough to know if the software center updates them automatically too, look in the settings of it (if there are any). Hope this was helpful.

It is based on ubuntu, so everything works out of the box, and no complex setup, mint is no archlinux or gentoo

Probably around 800mb, but It has been long since I’ve used any desktop environment. Nowadays I prefer tiling window managers, they are much more lightweight and fast.

That is absurd, I wouldn’t listen to that. Better yet, you should use Linux Mint Xfce version which is way more minimal than Ubuntu.

Yes, of course. NixOS is just a “nice to have” kind of thing.

I’ve heard NixOS is used on big scale deployments, and it is a well paid job it just won’t be easy

You should try Linux mint

Dude, same thing happened to me
