I’m a linux user but this is so cringe.

Thats fine. We just ignore Omarcy and hold our upstream projects to account if they start trying to implement omacy features.

I dont like Omarcy and DHH but its pretty obvious why hes getting the funding and not other projects. The reason this gets funded and stuff like Gnome and KDE doesnt is because DHH has influence, he isnt a foss purist and he has no bureaucracy holding him back.

No one cares when KDE makes a post trying to drive linux adoption. When DHH does it drives thousands of new linux users. DHH alone can market the distro to new people in a way most foss projects cant.

When a company tries to partner with another project not only do they get very little exposure because the community is small and resistant to advertising but they also often get attacked and purity tested by the users and it generates bad press. When DHH partners with a company his users think its cool and try out the product. It doesnt matter how scummy the company is or if its closed source subscription only.

Investors also see Omachy as something where changes can be made without needing 4 years of arguing with one guy rejecting every change. A fast moving tech focused platform with a good marketer could pull people out of the microsoft apple ecosystem to a place where products can freely compete without entrenched platforms stealing their idea and making their version the default

Do you? i thought they had an apk available to install.

with DNF you can specify a specific version I assume the same is true for other packages. Proper backup solutions should give the same A/B upgrade path that Nix and other immutable distros enjoy. I like nix I really do I just would like to have a reason to go through the painful learning process.

Is there a single thing nix does that isnt easier to do with a simple bash script applied over whatever your favorite distro is? Reproducible builds is all that comes to mind

Some things you could do is apply theming in an autistic nix way, configure some services to auto run and setup monitoring and reporting for them.

I use Phocid and its good but it has this thing that drives me insane. Default behavior is when you select a song to begin playing it as a playlist. But if you search it treats the results as a playlist. Ok fine I can long press the song and add to queue.

But I change the default behavior to select a song being add to queue there is no option to long press and play as a playlist. Am I using it wrong or missing a way to use the app properly?
