Years ago, a friend turned me on to an old book from back in the early 70s called Nomadic Furniture. It is full of DIY plans and flatpack stuff that looks way ahead of their time. From an Italian camp chairs from the 1800s, cardboard furniture that we see touted today as "new", to self-contained "living cubes" that would make IKEA proud, to some frankly very practical DIY stuff. This morning I learned there is a volume 2!
I switched over to Joplin a while back in an effort degooglerize myself. I was able to install via flatpack on Linux Mint. It was easy to import from Google Keep. I love it, and wish I had moved sooner.
I was interested in the NewsFlash #RSS reader, until I saw that installing the FlatPack required 3.6 GB, whereas installing Liferea required about 3 MB. I assume this is a #FlatPack issue rather than NewsFlash being bloated. It was funny, since an article mentioned their slimmed down code base. In related news, if people have RSS feed readers they really like using on #Linux I'm open to suggestions. Some way of syncing across devices (including Android) would be a plus.
I know #NIX and #NIXOS have lots of fans, but every time I try to use them again I want to drive nails into my forehead. I think I like my immutable with Snap or Flatpak.
@AngryAnt@dennisfaucher In this approach would you run #flatpack installations from #nixOS configuration.nix fresh each #rebuild ? Or run flatpack installs from command line after #nixOS rebuilds: in which case would flatpack installs be there after any rebuild?
Perchè #Linux ha superato il record del 3% delle installazioni globali su PC dopo anni di stagnazione? Io non mi sorprendo, #Gnome nelle ultime versioni ha finalmente creato un ambiente semplice e minimale che non fosse un'ennesima complessa copia di Windows. #Flatpack e #Snap permettono finalmente installazioni delle applicazioni senza complicazioni!
Ultimo colpaccio è stato l'adozione di linux su #SteamDeck nel 2022 che ha portato molta più compatibilità con i giochi 👍
