Hello everyone, I came across this sublemming/com today, I saw it had no post yet and decided to do the honour of opening the /c/ to topics.

I’ve been running ArchLinux on my former laptop for close to a year now and then got a new one and decided to put NixOS on it. First off, it was intimidating as almost everything I read online about NixOS was either about the Nix language, Flakes, Options, reproducibility and every other peculiar stuff about the Distro. Right now, I’m settled in and really enjoying it.

Now, I’d like to know any tips, tricks or settings I could do to my install that’d make it a better development environment, I use the Gnome DE and all suggestions are welcome. Also, I’d be replacing the ArchLinux on my former laptop with OpenSuse Tumbleweed, opinions about that are also welcome.

If you’re new to Linux, take your time with it, try out as many distros as you can and if you need any help, you can mention me or check in the general !Linux /c/, you’ll surely find all the help you want. Remember, with FOSS software, you’re in control of all your information.
