my mom and a bunch of other people

People who aren’t very close to you are one thing, but wouldn’t your mom of all people be wiling to install Signal or your preferred alternative?

Have a source?

If you want to keep everything inside a singular Nix configuration while still using Docker, you can check out the NixOS option virtualisation.oci-containers - essentially, a declarative way of managing docker/podman containers (similar to docker-compose) but with Nix.

Very nice, this comes with a lot of advantages for Hyprland, and I wholeheartedly congratulate Vaxry on separating from the rubbish that is FDO’s management.

You could host on Gitea and mirror to GitHub. Obviously, users may be less inclined to sign up to your Gitea instance, but I hope people being unwilling to register becomes less of an issue once Forgejo (Gitea fork) implements forge federation.

I hope this changes (even if a little bit) once Forgejo (FLOSS Gitea fork) adds forge federation.

Or you can use a doas implementation like OpenDoas, or maybe sudo-rs…

This is a pretty good option, though I also think something like what aseprite has done is pretty good too (compile it yourself for free, or pay for a precompiled binary available through e.g. Steam) - from what I can tell this setup is fairly profitable.

Well, I’m not sure how many lines of C rm is written in but I think that rm being only around 4kb (iirc) is something to consider.

But still, storage probably matters least in this day and age. Oh, and…

something I used to completely nuke my home server

If I’m reading this right, then I hope you had backups ready :)

Nah, no way. :)

I don’t know whether rm is memory-safe or not, but vpr is. By ‘memory-safe alternative’ I meant that this alternative is memory-safe, but not that rm isn’t.

Happy to hear that you like it :)

Go for it! It’s pretty simple but does help teach a few things.

That’s great, thanks! I’ll look into submitting it to the official homebrew tap sometime, and get back to you.

I’m now using Hyprland on NixOS (have been happily doing so for months now) after a configure several other window managers (leftwm, awesomeWM, etc.).

I plan to share my setup sometime soon but I’ve got secrets in my configuration (and git history!) that I’ll need to remove first.
