| ash | thank you for working on this stuff. it's valuable to try and deflate the problem, which i see you and others are working on doing | 03:41:42 |
| ash | i get overly worked up about things like this, it's not only because of flakes but a general pet peeve of mine is people depending on unstable functionality | 03:42:35 |
| ash | i can barely look at the main nix support channel because there's always someone asking for help with flakes and i hate it | 03:43:06 |
| David Arnold | "deflate the problem" -- what a nice wording ! 😀 | 03:43:43 |
| ash | making it smaller and more manageable, easier to remove fully in the future | 03:44:01 |
| David Arnold | I'll put that in the UFR | 03:44:13 |
| ash | i recognize that my ideal of getting rid of it in one fell swoop is maybe unrealistic | 03:44:26 |
| ash | i do think it's the quickest way out but maybe not the most agreeable | 03:44:46 |

i do think it's the quickest way out but maybe not the most agreeable I think with the right amount of deflation we can go back to a consensus point, indeed | 03:45:47 |

| ash | i still stand by my statements of not caring what happens to flakes and just wanting them gone | 03:46:41 |
| ash | so that's the point i want to reach | 03:46:48 |
| ash | and maybe when they're reintroduced through a proper process i'll be more comfortable with it all | 03:47:20 |
| ash | if you want my real opinion, i think unstable nix should not be in nixpkgs at all, nor should nix flakes | 03:49:34 |
| ash | one should have to go out of their way to get an unstable version of nix directly from the nix repo, because they're working on its development | 03:50:13 |
| ash | having it so easily accessible promotes use of unstable features, which influences workflows and results in dependence on unstable stuff | 03:51:14 |
| ash | maybe i'm wrong. idk | 03:51:19 |
| David Arnold | It's diabolic poitics at play 😁 | 03:55:20 |
