And it felt great.
Long story short, I was looking for a new Linux distro to use (very Fediverse cliche situation, I know), and of course my first reflex was to use Reddit. However, due to the combined enshittification of both Google and Reddit, I couldn’t find relevant recent threads for my question, so I thought, let’s use some search-lemmy.
A few threads later, I was able to make my decision. I just wanted to share this with you as this is for me a very strong sign that we are moving away from Reddit for good.
Some of the threads in question:

And in case you wonder, it’s probably going to be OpenSUSE. Currently testing it in VirtualBox at the moment before making the jump.
Yeah, I’ve dabbled with package searches and installs as you’ve described. Basically the intro to Nix.
For the importing of RPM or DEB packages, source would be great if it weren’t a commercial product :) Just going from memory, it was Maya.
I meant the source code of the package, not the app itself. There’s something called maya, is that it? If so, here’s the package source: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-23.05/pkgs/data/fonts/gdouros/default.nix
Negative. This is Maya:
