    For whatever reason, when I see unixporn like this, it makes me want to redo my system but also try unify my rice across my main desktop and laptop. I seriously need to look into getting my dot files sorted.

    Edit: Updated the comment to be clearer.

      I was like that five years ago. If you have the energy, I would say go for it. Explore all the different ways you can work, with tiling window managers, shortcuts and different apps to get notifications and other things. It’s a lot of fun.

      Go into the nvim universe for a while too. I was there and wrote my own config and my own plugins, was fun.

      I mean, why not… :) What else is fun at a computer…

      I agree that its default look is ugly, but almost everyone configures it anyway.

      But, on the other hand, if the defaults were prettier, situation could be different…

    Do you use a smaller kernel build? How do you get 880mb of ram usage? The lowest i can get is 990~1010mb with the graphics. In tty its 850~950mb. Not that it matters because i have 16gbs of ram but lower number better i guess?

      No, I use whatever NixOS uses by default

        Could you share your nix config?? I want to have this setup with none of the work because I’m a noob. Thank you for your time

          I was getting the same resourve usage on NixOS as well. I think I was get to more on Arch and I’m getting more on Fedora too. I think it has something to do with NixOS’ packaging being quite well-optimised because you can just have better optimisiations by not having any useless services running (controlled via configuration.nix)
