Since I switched just a month or two ago yesterday was flakes-figuring-out-day for me. It’s terrible in the sense, that the first thing I had to do was actually figure out what flakes even do and what is it you can use them for. The guides didn’t help a lot because they assumed I alreary knew that. I think I understand now, but there is an offchance I got it compeletly wrong and that bothers me.
To be fair… Flakes are still marked as an experimental feature, so they are telling you it probably won’t be documented and the interface could change. But yes, given how widely adopted they are in the community, it’s definitely time to document them better and ideally make it the default for new setups.
Apple tankies: That’s because iPhone has superior security features making them entirely theft proof.
Google tankies: LOOOL it’s cuz apple sux!!!1
Everyone else: can I take a moment of your time to spread the good word of Arch Linux? I use Arch btw.
Don’t bring up Linux in every post challenge (impossible)
I love how 95% of Lemmy users are Linux users
I used arch btw until i switched to nixos fr. Kind of like a splinter group, a cult if you would. Less aur. More flakes. Still mostly unusable.
nixos would be 10x better if flakes had actual documentation and not jack shit with a generous amount of nothing

I feel the same. I don’t understand what they do but every guide expects me to.
Dude I love club penguin
I love how you frame Arch as the default which isn’t wrong but there are also Ubuntu nerds out there like me 🤓
Imagine if there were ten different types of annoying preachy vegans
That’s how irritating you are 😂
I’m not preachy. Ubuntu isn’t for everyone, I get it
You still had to bring it up didn’t you?
No, but I did because I can
Because nobody else talks to you 😂
