@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (burnt out)It wasn't always like that, there were times when the projects cooperated much more and there were RFCs with the aim of making features into Nix that would help Nixpkgs, but there's a lot of history of Nix side not being very nice and considerate09:57:43

UK politics has radicalized me out of my last traces of centrism. Due to stupid electoral system, I've been voting for the lesser evil for 30 years now, and it has achieved precisely nothing.
that's always been the case in poland too, just not as obvious

@kfears:matrix.orgKFears (burnt out)2.4 release was a disaster in terms of regressions, many other releases broke Nixpkgs, 2.18 was shipped for more than a year due to constant regressions in newer versions, 2.13 or something broke the ecosystem because it completely changed profiles...09:58:58
@srtcd424:auxolotl.orgtc424 (Steve D) I've decided I'm old enough now that I'm entitled to vote with my conscience if I want, even if that vote is 'wasted' by first-past-the-post. That would mean voting Green here I think. 10:00:31

I feel like it was more of a "turning point" after which things have never been the same, but from limited archeology I've done, it seems like a lot of stuff was pointing in that direction even before

If it were only srid there would be a lot fewer problems.

@coca162:matrix.orgCocaIn one discord I'm in it has "We encourage the use of pronouns in your nickname. If you're not sure why we do this, please ask in ⁠off-topic." and everytime there is a wave of new people coming in from somewhere you just get to see all the people get banned because they complained about it13:05:47
