I hear you. No distro has anything compared to Arch’s wiki, and NixOS’ documentation is currently mixed at best. For what it’s worth, NixOS’ package repository is comparable to the AUR. I have yet to run into anything I use on AUR that isn’t available in the official NixOS package repository.

If this guy follows the rabbit hole he’ll soon be using NixOS with Impermanence and wiping to a clean setup every reboot.

the future of complex web apps*

I can see in-browser games and containerized desktop application benefiting from wasm, but simple ecommerce sites without all the fluff can be just as performant with SSR or a multi-page application. For instance several years ago I built the frontend and middleware for the Hart Tools and Ryobi Tools websites using Nuxt for SSR and Algolia for the search. Images are the majority of CPU and network load and the websites are snappy as a result. Even this tech stack is overkill for what the websites need to do but my point is for general use case this or a similar tech stack won’t benefit from introducing wasm.

Very cool! I like how changing either variable gives you a completely different pattern. Though not the same idea here’s another fun one: https://codepen.io/josetxu/pen/mdoaKEr

Have you tried Immich? It has a very similar feel to Google Photos but with the advantage of owning your storage.

Him being naked is completely unnecessary but enhances everything.
