• what's a lesser know distro that surprised you in a positive way?

  Is Solus less known? If not, then idk, maybe InstantOS. Source: over 1 year ago

• InstantOs is an `out of this world` distribution based on Arch

  Instant OS is a very polished Arch distribution. It features it's own window manager called InstantWM which is a tiling as well as stacking window manager. I personally like to use vanilla arch but Endeavor and InstantOS are the only Arch based distributions I've liked so far. Source: over 2 years ago

• Which WM do you use, and why?

  Instantwm is quite cool. Highly recommended https://instantos.io/. Source: over 2 years ago

• Distro for a few years old cheap laptop

  I think Arch-based distros like arch, arcolinux, archcraft or instantos are suite for your laptop. More over you can use void or gentoo if you are experienced user. Source: over 2 years ago

  Hello, thank you very much for the fast response time! 1) My exact version of linux is InstantOS (arch-based https://instantos.io/). 2) When connecting to that server, I get the following IP: https://i.imgur.com/5xxaGp6.png . 3) Same ting happens when using port 443, just with a different IP, as seen in the screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/TmZ9pL2.png .

• Colima k8s nix setup

  Nix is a cross-platform package manager. It uses the nix programming language. Nix and NixOs are often used in the same context, but while the first is a package manager, the latter is a linux distribution based on nix. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• NixOs - Your portable dev enviroment

  Today I want to talk to you about Nixos. What is it? Nixos is a declarative and reproducible OS, partly taking the words used on their own page. What does that mean? - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Nix – A One Pager

  Software developers often want to customize: 1. Their home environments: for packages (some reach for brew on MacOS) and configurations (dotfiles, and some reach for stow). 2. Their development shells: for build dependencies (compilers, SDKs, libraries), tools (LSP, linters, formatters, debuggers), and services (runtime, database). Some reach for devcontainers here. 3. Or even their operating systems: for... - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers

  Hopping from one distro to another with a different package manager might require some time to adapt. Using a package manager that can be installed on most distro is one way to help you get to work faster. Flatpak is one of them; other alternative are Snap, Nix or Homebrew. Flatpak is a good starter, and if you have a bunch of free time, I suggest trying Nix. - Source: dev.to / 2 months ago
