I was interested in trying NixOS before after many years of Linux experience but I couldn’t understand what advantages it had over my current setup. It just mostly seemed more complicated than it needed to be for little to no gain.

The reproducibility aspect of it can be achieved on other Linux platforms or in other environments so it wasn’t a big draw for me. I already have backups too. Making it easily deployable seems like the same use case as for instance, docker, which is available everywhere already.

I love projects like this though so I fully support it!

This sounds like a great idea but I’m wondering if this is best to go into the UI of an app, for instance. Making the lists of multi-subreddits easily sharable would be a big plus, that way it isn’t just one person who controls who is allowed into the multi-subreddit.

Same but on a Pixel 6a. It’s good for the most part. I don’t use this phone for calls/sms so I wish I could just disable that while retaining mobile data, but I haven’t figured that out yet really.

This is awesome! I love seeing the whole community here like this!

I use btrfs snapshots and btrbk

btrfs is a great filesystem and btrbk complements it easily. Switching between snapshots is also really easy if something goes wrong and you need to restore.

Archwiki docs for btrfs: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Btrfs#Incremental_backup_to_external_drive

Of course you’d still want a remote location to backup to. You can use an encrypted volume with cloud storage. So google drive, etc all work.
