low key kinda am glad I don't main nixos, it sounds like a pain dealing with things made for "traditional" distros breaking in odd ways over there

@mikoto I think the point of NixOS isn't using it as main on your system, but to deploy a single setup on multiple machines.

@getimiskon I mean there's not really a point to all of that if you aren't using it in your daily workflow

I do get the appeal of trying something odd and new, I was like that at one point

Nowadays I just settle with something that works well enough, even if it's boring.

@mikoto every day I get closer to wondering why I'd use any distro other than endeavouros or popos as a daily driver

@mikoto actually glad it's falling apart because nixos users will open the most convoluted issues and call you an asshole when you don't want to bother fixing something you cant even test

@mikoto Honestly, same

(I say this despite using an immutable OS)

@SimplyTadpole I don't have issues with immutable distros, just that nixos does strange things like not using the fhs and that breaks stuff.

I think something like Fedora's Atomic stuff (Silverblue, Kinoite, etc.) is a better implementation of an immutable OS concept

@mikoto I still want to try new and exciting things but I also want everything else not directly related to it to not get in my way, generally blobcatpeekaboo

So in practice that means for stuff like OS and desktop environment I'll settle with something boring and sufficiently unchanging, *because my interests are elsewhere*

@rini eh, I think there's still quite a bit of people using it

In either case, I don't blame you for feeling that way.

@mikoto I get what you mean.

I'm using Kinoite myself and I'm honestly glad that it's mostly quite simple to understand if you're not a Linux power user (which I definitely am not lol)

When I was first getting into Linux I wanted to try the latest and nicest stuff and experiment with interesting combinations, but I found that it just stressed me out... now I just use the "set it and forget it" type of stuff blob_grinning_sweat

About this instance

This is an instance based on Akkoma. It's one of the services that comprises the "Fediverse", a network of federated services like Mastodon, Misskey and others. For more information about the Fediverse, you can check out fediverse.party.

The instance is being run by getimiskon and it's a part of their services.

In order to keep the instance sustainable for as long as possible as well as to make easier to deal with moderation, we don't have open registrations. But feel free to ask for an invite.

Important: Some blocklists for ad blocking add-ons may cause issues, like hiding the "Follow" button. It's understandable that you may not want to disable your ad blocker, but make sure to configure it for this instance. This instance does not rely on ads and it will never be.


Rules

The following rules apply on this instance:

  • Don't spam

  • Don't harass anyone inside and outside this instance

  • Don't dox any user (sharing personal information without their consent)

  • Tag NSFW (not safe for work) content accordingly

  • Don't upload any material that includes minors (SFW or not)

  • Avoid posting anything illegal, specifically illegal in Germany, as the server is being hosted there

  • Sexism, racism, fascism and nazism are not welcome here

  • Boosted content is being treated like posts. Don't boost content that breaks this instance's rules

Non-compliance with these rules may result to the termination of your account


Federation Policy

We generally don't want to block instances. Because of the decentralized nature of the Fediverse, there might be content from other instances that don't comply with our rules and might be displayed at the "Known Network" tab. We may remove instances that host those posts from that tab. You will still be able to communicate with people from these instances if you want to.

We may block some instances for the following reasons:

  • Promote fascism, nazism, racism etc.
  • Host NSFW content including minors
  • Instances that are run by corporations who don't support Free Software
  • Instances that cause problems to our users

We also don't block instances for the following reasons:

  • Federation with instances we disagree with
  • Personal issues with the owners of other instances
  • Because a blocklist maintainer told us to do so

If there are any issues or mistakes that we should be aware of, feel free to contact the admin of this instance.


Support

While the server is free to use, unfortunately hosting it is not. In order to continue running it and our services, as well as improving them, support is needed by its users.

You can support the instance and all the services by donating at Liberapay. Keep in mind that donations at Liberapay are recurring, so if you plan to do a one-time donation, it may not be the best option for you.

For more information about supporting this instance, contact the admin.
