Currently using stow, but in the process of switching to home manager from nix. Syncing via git.

Yes, it’s still X11. I want to switch to Wayland.
But then your still using i3 + lots of custom scripts. I don’t find the time anymore to maintain all this custom config. I want to switch to Wayland but I don’t want to invest all that time with sway again.
I’m currently doing this with xfce replacing it’s window manager with i3. Sadly that doesn’t work on Wayland anymore because the concept of a window manager doesn’t exist anymore. Your DE is a compositor now.
Still waiting for a DE that’s looks and acts like i3/sway but takes care of everything under the hood like monitor config, shortcuts for brightness, volume etc. Essentially everything Gnome or KDE does.
Apple is just as bad in a different way. There is no perfect solution. People need to understand what they do, to do it well. That doesn’t mean that the average Joe needs to learn C. He can continue to write down the process on some sticky notes but it would help if he does look beyond the horizon e g. understand what the buttons he clicks all day actually do.
To me the whole purpose of that game is too get your money. There is either no intention to every finishing that game or the founder is so into good own bubble that he doesn’t realize that this week never be finished.
Uninstall windows. Done.
You could run a VM and plan to setup one service on it as an exercise. NixOS wiki is pretty ok in general, but it is a useful skill to read the code of the modules you use. Flakes are poorly documented and also controversial. So I wouldn’t hop on that yet.
Arch on everything with a screen. NixOS on everything without.
Wegen do they shut down windows 11?
Not using a password manager (be it digital or simply a paper notebook) is just asking for a breach or getting hacked.
No one can remember the amount and complexity of passwords that are needed to live a secure digital live.
Every service/account you register for years now and couldn’t live without it. I’ve set up a paper notebook for my mother and that works too.
But reusing passwords or using too short or insecure passwords is the number one reason why people get hacked or stuff gets leaked and stolen.
As a side note: a secure password doesn’t have to include weird characters. Just make it long. Everything with 32 chars of letters and numbers or longer will be super secure for a while. And because your password manager takes of it, you don’t even notice.
Not only that. Remember when Sony said that you don’t own the PS4 you bought for several hundred bucks but just purchased the right to use it as intended so you’re not allowed to tinker with it and for example install another operating system or figure out how their security works.
That’s what is meant by buying is not owning anymore.
I could go on about cars with subscriptions for heated seats that are already installed but not turned on etc.
For music from artists that don’t exist anymore I mostly use ddl. If the artist is still there and offers a decent way of giving them money, I usually do that.
Can’t say I’d prefer it yet. Still figuring out how nix works.
