 bandithedoge | whatever works for you | 20:29:54 |
 maxyw | can lix also be a replacement for nix community chats
i want to ask general questions about nix/lix/etc stuff without risking talking to a military contractor | 20:30:07 |
| bandithedoge | luckily for you said military contractors rarely hang out on matrix from what i've seen | 20:31:20 |
| maxyw | ooh ok
i never actually checked much bc i don't use matrix too often
notifications are sorta hard to balance | 20:32:47 |
 leona | it's imo not really helpful for a project with quite different goals to offer that. people already confuse everything too ofen | 20:32:54 |

| bandithedoge | the matrix rooms are mostly pretty chill | 20:34:21 |
| maxyw | look people here are gonna have to get used to other ppl joining and then incorrectly referring to parts of nix when lix blows up and attracts newcomers
especially when more nixos/nix users in general start hearing about it and then newcomers to nix will join and be like "hey im trying to install home-manager someone told me that lix will install it for me? btw what do channels mean"
u can think of it like warming up | 20:39:59 |
 Charles | i don't think "getting used to people joining and mixing things up" and "telling those people the correct place to have their conversation" are mutually exclusive | 21:20:28 |
| Charles | i think most people understand pretty well that chatrooms have some particular scope and it's normal to be told to try again elsewhere, without any assuming/implying any hostility | 21:22:01 |

 tavinator | otoh my friend's mom thought everyone on the facebook feed was messaging her directly | 22:06:23 |
| Charles | i guess i should clarify "most people" to "most people who would end up in a chatroom like this one" | 22:07:35 |

 dish [Fox/It/She] | wow thats a fucking load of bullshit | 00:24:02 |
 QuadRadical (Ping) | well i will be sure to do the opposite of what this site says :3 | 00:40:13 |
| Charles | just read the list backwards | 00:40:16 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | exactly | 00:43:01 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | where do people actually vote? | 00:44:05 |

| QuadRadical (Ping) | ty | 01:14:46 |
 samasaur | i was going to say that this has one objectively redeeming quality (a quick way to cross-reference which candidates signed the open letter) but they can't even do that right | 01:30:08 |
| QuadRadical (Ping) | so, you need to have commiter access to vote? | 02:44:49 |
| Charles | no | 02:45:01 |
