It’s Gentoo. That could be possible, maybe something to do with the open vs non-open variant. I will look into it.


I wouldn’t call sway a custom WM, it uses wlroots which has become a standard.
Though I agree that wlroots seem to vary significantly in results with gnome and KDE based Wayland.


Not a libertarian if you were referring to me. I envision a system in which we all contribute and take part instead of throwing all the effort on someone already providing you with the space and expecting them to do it all, when you can more easily do it yourself.


Sure, if I want a community about cooking and instead of finding cooking content I find insults and harassment, then I will leave. That’s essentially an equivalent of the blocking feature I spoke about.
But I find it hard to believe that such a cooking community would become good by just having a moderator ban all the offenders, when they occupy most of the posts.


On the topic of admjn burnout, I find it ridiculous that we choose to put so much burden on instance and community admins. Why don’t people just utilize their block functions instead of expecting admins to clean up bad posts and users as fast as possible?
Not saying admins should do nothing, but it should be sufficient for an admin to only do what’s absolutely necessary to keep the instance alive (including removal of illegal content). Anything else should be considered extra credit and no one should be entertained complaining about it.


Weird question, but what does GnuCash do that you wouldn’t get easily from excel? I haven’t used any of these apps and wondering what I’m missing out on.


Here is a docker compose: https://snikket.org/service/resources/docker-compose.yml
You only two configuration options in the config file: domain and email.


This makes matrix even less attractive to me lol. But you’re right, that’s a very good point.
Guix is almost like nix but with scheme, right? Any other differences?
I do like scheme. Nix is quite impressive. But my unpopular opinion is I am not convinced it’s philosophy is necessary. Nix feels like a workaround to legacy baggage in POSIX to allow for all its features of full reproducibility of packages and the overall system. Although Gentoo is not exactly reproducible, I feel like the level of control is sufficient to give me the benefits I want.
Nix works for maybe 95% of cases, but the 5% where its workarounds do not work sre annoying to deal with. Gentoo on the other hand doesn’t break so much from the traditional unix way of doing things, but still grants the user a great load of freedom and choice.


I love when people on the Internet say “X did Y quietly” to make it more suspenseful. This doesn’t look quiet to me…


I’d love to clarify if you tell me which part of the post you didn’t understand.
Tbh I don’t know what gamescope is, but I’ll look into that and try it out to see. Thanks!
