Everything wasn't okay before the RAM crisis now it's just worse

superhot, i think, haven't played it in a while

That joke is kinda plane, it made me yaw.

WAIT this actually has code in it I was reading the README and thought it wasn't actually gonna be implemented lmao, this is peak satire

Arch Wiki has helped me many times even when I wasn't using Arch

I had already converted my home manager configuration into normal config files and was using Home Manager just to manage symlinks.

I was using Nix for system configuration but that doesn't mean that I forgot how to set up a Linux system by more conventional methods (it's like learning how to ride a bike). While I do like the declarative aspect, doing everything in one language didn't appeal anymore after over a year of using NixOS...

Also, I wanted a package manager that told me what packages would be updated, and which let me search packages from the command line easily... Nix didn't provide that and it was annoying me.

I do miss flake.nix or shell.nix files and Nix shells though. But XBPS (Void's package manager) has its fair share of cool things as well and seems easier to understand, which is a bonus.

Here is my distrohopping journey: Mint -> Arco -> Debian -> KDE Neon -> Artix -> Void -> NixOS -> Fedora -> Void

idk who that character is, but i don't like AI, it is polluting the environment and polluting the internet, all while disrespecting the work of artists (visual artists, musicians, voice actors, writers, photographers, etc)

opt-out is not consent

slow to lauch things it installed permissions finicky non-integration with host system’s things

It's a great way to install apps without cluttering ~/.config, ~/.local/share, etc, since each app has its own directory in ~/.var/app (unless it has write permissions somewhere else in which case it might use that), and I don't care as much about managing configuration files of specific GUI apps. I run Librewolf as a Flatpak and it launches quickly, also.

I use it to reduce bloat, because I can install an app to try it and not have to worry about cleaning it up later. Also my system uses only 1.1GiB of RAM without any apps open which is fine since I have a lot running in the background (Niri, Waybar, terminal server, XDG portals, etc.)

Only GUI apps I specifically don't use it for are Steam - because I heard bad things about Steam running as a Flatpak - and KeePassXC - because it's the one Flatpak app I couldn't make the system theme work for no matter what I did, so I used the one in the repos.

For the system settings, yeah it doesn't integrate at all if you don't configure it. I just used Flatseal (a convenient Flatpak configuration GUI) to set environment variables for all Flatpak apps, and gsettings to set themes, and now it works for most apps, except KeePassXC specifically for some reason. Understandable take on system settings.

Main reason I use it though, is that compared to my previous distro (NixOS), Void Linux's repos don't have nearly as many packages.

Yeah, but I enabled cookies for lemmy.zip then solved the captcha and images from there still don't show up.

I've noticed that I cannot see images hosted on lemmy.zip unless I visit it manually, what could be causing this?
