 raitobezarius | Nix channels gud | 20:21:17 |
| raitobezarius | I like them | 20:21:19 |
| raitobezarius | even though everyone hates them | 20:21:22 |
 KFears (burnt out) | I hate everything except the concept :( All of the UI/UX decisions around it and the implementation decisions I dislike | 20:22:49 |
 QuadRadical (Ping) | i still like flakes | 20:26:59 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | they could be simpler, but they do work well | 20:27:07 |
 Emma [it/its] | i love my flakes | 20:27:47 |

kinda wish the flake.nix parser want so limited, but /shrug I literally just use flakes for lockfiles. Almost all my flakes are just stubs around unlocked default.nix/package.nix/shell.nix | 20:52:49 |

 David Lee | so hey, I've got a nice flake setup for nixos. buut if I wanted to have a "not flake but not channels" setup, maybe like https://jade.fyi/blog/pinning-nixos-with-npins/ says .. is there anything else to show how to actually go about it? | 22:28:07 |

 ekler | what are you stuck on?
| 00:41:20 |
| David Lee | actually not stuck at all: https://github.com/davidlee/nix-config/blob/main/nix-config/PORTING-NOTES.md
rebuilds without drama. Pleasantly surprised to find I can just symlink to my flakes so I can port them one at a time if I decide to commit
just gotta try an actual switch now | 04:36:52 |
| David Lee | well, damn. worked without a hitch. fast, too. | 04:42:10 |

 FireFly | nice, that's pretty much what I arrived at as well (although I called my symlink /etc/current-nixpkgs) | 08:38:35 |
