There’s also the Wayblue family of Wayland distros, based on Ublue.

It’s hard to say for certain whether a distro will work for your hardware, even the Nvidia-specific images can have bugs related to the Nvidia drivers or their interaction with compositors.

I’ve used NixOS for a year.

I also tried Fedora Sway Atomic for a week or so. It mostly worked well, but I eventually found that it’s really hard to use Nix for development on a graphics application, because linking with the system Vulkan drivers is near impossible. The loader used by Nix’s glibc will ignore FHS locations. That seems to rule out a lot of the benefits of using Nix.

So I gave up on using Nix + Fedora as a failed experiment and went back to NixOS.

My wish list for Nix, Wayland, and Sway is pretty long. I kinda wish I had the time to make a new distro.

Wow. I would love to here from the mods how my comment was breaking the rules of a memes community.

You don’t know me.

What? That’s just not a good comparison.

People don’t shoot up drugs in a roll of toilet paper.

People pee on the sidewalk regardless of whether public restrooms exist.

We have other problems to fix before we can safely bring back free public restrooms.

Please explain.

NixOS is at least starting to work on a new wiki. The old one is gone and is only accessible from archive.org.

Not my main rig, but my most unusual is 32-bit Yocto Linux on an Intel Edison that I got for free from a college professor that worked for Intel.

Yocto is awful. I mean it has a niche I guess, but there is basically no package manager. Somehow I managed to install a Rust toolchain on it, but it couldn’t build the web server I wanted to run on it.

I’d much rather have a Pi running a sane distro.

Fair. I was mostly thinking about it from the perspective of what the writers had intended at the time.

I thought the Empire in Star Wars was supposed to be Third Reich Germany. They literally both have “stormtroopers.”
