One thing I noticed:

Android 11, LineageOS, Material Design 2 - Every app has it's own accent color, colors and shapes are generally bright and distinct, looks nice, even in light mode. Menu above notifications has compact version with icons only, full version has text below the sane small buttons, everything feels compact but buttons are actually hard to missclick.

Android 12/13, crDroid, Material Design 3 - every accent color is replaced with washed out version of random color from wallpaper, everything is very rounded for no reason, light mode looks weird for some reason, everything is a very rounded button or the same rounded plane. Menu feels a lot less compact and focus is on text that is part of large buttons, not terrible, but no compact mode.

Even Material Design 3 apps look brighter and less sad in Android 11. But either way one style does not look that well with another, and a ton of apps are material design 2 compliant instead of version 3, for some reason even older android apps didn't stand out much until material design 3.

Android 11 is so comf :comfy_cirno:

Why did they fuck up android interface so much when they could have just not

The situations where you really need a phone occur specifically when you don't have one

The thing I learned from my phone breaking, MORE BACKUPS
Tired Bunny :bunhdcomfysleep:
I think my phone died because of rain... :cry_cirno:

I cannot even turn it OFF (only thing even remotely working is fastboot mode, but I can only reboot from here, force shutdown also reboots)

Screen tried to come off while I tried to get protective glass off...

Not good :cry_cirno:

Trying to split NixOS config into several files is successful... Kinda? It works and vaguely understand where did I put what things

Obsidian Kanban board plugin is really comf :comfy_cirno:
Tired Bunny :bunhdcomfysleep:
Thinking about making some smart NixOS config files structure to not scroll through all of configuration.nix to search for something, but also to not check several files trying to remembering where I left some specific config part either

Hm... It seems borg/vorta backups are ~twice as fast compared to just rsyncing files
Tired Bunny :bunhdcomfysleep:
Since I now have relatively light home folder I decided to start making full home folder backups (+ NixOS root can be basically backed up just by copying configuration files)
Tired Bunny :bunhdcomfysleep:
I should probably find a better backup software though, rsync is cool but fails at keeping symlinks while backing up to exFat drive and lacks encryption of it's own

Apparently, NixOS has best memory management from distros I tried by default. It actually has working OOM killer that while doesn't prevent lagging, prevents full hangups I got on other distros, despite now I don't even swap or zram configured (though I should do it ^^)

My old Fedora home folder has 48 hidden folders and 26 hidden files, though it also has way more stuff in .config and .local since I used it for a 3/4 of a year without much cleaning, but wow this is impossible to use when compared to clean new install I only used for ~1 week

Linux software that stores files right in the Home directory is like a guest that comes to your house and doing restroom things right in hallway

Having separate NixOS configs ("specializations" to choose from in GRUB) for proprietary and open source drivers on NVIDIA+Intel laptop really pays off, noveau doesn't really work but doesn't power on the discrete card either unlike official NVIDIA ones that always power the card on and turn laptop into heater even if it just at desktop and actually only uses the integrated card at the moment
Tired Bunny :bunhdcomfysleep:
Launching local Nextcloud (not inernet-facing, just a test one) with NixOS is very easy.

My revenge for my previous docker attempts feels sucessful :comfy_cirno:

Husky being husky.

I should check if someone made issues about these bugs and if not, make them myself

Apparently, BizHawk, multi system emulator for tool-assisted speedruns does not only have linux version that works except for n64 emulator, but also an work in progress nix expression

I'd like to imagine that one developer working on linux port decided to make nix version as a treat, after long days of resolving dependency hell of windows-centric old codebase
Tired Bunny :bunhdcomfysleep:
Actually, it seems I was half right, that developer is focusing on Nix to make it one of default multi-distro builds.

Let's wish him good luck on that, it seems from github issues that bizhawk codebase is a mess

Apparently my GPU is not really enough for Stable Diffusion, it only worked through one WebUI that had some specific optimizations optionally enabled.

Now that this specific webui doesn't work with NixOS I cannot even generate 512 x 512 image, it throws CUDA out of memory errors at me. I could use enviroment variables to force CUDA to fragment stuff it does, but it will probably slow down it a lot more than well tested optimizations, so I will just postpone deleting Fedora partition for that usecase, I guess? (Also, llama webUIs are not packaged for nixOS at all as for now)

I'm really sad there is basically no way to have friends leave proprietary chats. Both network effect and UI/UX of foss competitors is too much of a hurdle to overcome to them just to please one privacy fanatic (me)
