I installed SwayFX, but no program wanted to open in Wayland despite XWayland being installed, complaining about "no x server", even the wayland-native programs. I gave up and went to XFCE4, then back to SwayFX because Wayland magically started workinng.

Sounds neat. I am really considering NixOS, that's why I'm asking for advice here. It really sounds like a nice and more convenient distro. Sadly, I still haven't figured out how to make my own builders, even after Nix Pills. Thankfully, programs like crate2nix exist.

Sounds great, but I don't like editing a config file every time I want to install an app,.

Generally when over time you start installing more and more stuff and you forget to remove it and it feels clunky and bloated.

Right now I have a VM running NixOS, so I can figure things out. What annoys me is that when asked to list all the programs I want to use, I struggle, but installing things on the fly is so much more easier. Nix-env does that, but it doesn't add it to a /etc/nixos/configuration.nix, does it? Also, I know about home-manager, but I've heard it's extrememly difficult.

That's extremely inconvenient. Especially if you have important files you need to backup.

Joined lemmy.world on June 12th, around July 3rd when it got overloaded I joined vlemmy.net, been happy ever since. So 2 instances. I still sometimes check lemmy.world to see if my posts/comments are posting because vlemmy is facing federation issues due to the reddit HoD.

Ditto, but replace lemmy.sdf.org with vlemmy.
