@hexa:lossy.networkhexathere is simply no need for linux-core, because we are just a lot of linux users20:17:25
@mjolnir:nixos.orgNixOS Moderation Botchanged room power levels.20:18:55
@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátMaybe. In the survey the darwin fraction seemed surprisingly high to me, compared to what it feels like at contribution side.20:19:06

@vcunat:matrix.orgVladimír ČunátMaybe there are ways how to work better with the community, making them more engaged. I feel like a wrong person for that, though.20:22:45
@trofi:matrix.orgtrofi It's a bit easier to contribute from NixOS without fear of getting a bug related to host distribution. Not so much from nix-on-other-linux. I wonder if darwin is in a similar boat. 20:25:24

Maybe. In the survey the darwin fraction seemed surprisingly high to me, compared to what it feels like at contribution side.
But most Darwin Users typically don't contribute from my experience, would be interesting to get the fastly data and look at how many packages are pulled on Darwin compared to Linux and how that measures up compared to survey participants

@julienmalka:matrix.org@julienmalka:matrix.orgI think the discussion of having a darwin release manager is interesting but as much as I would like to be part of the release management team, this unfortunately couldn’t be me as I sold my last piece of darwin hardware one week ago20:45:00
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa * I would argue that is because the average linux user cares more about driving the distro, than the average darwin user cares for driving homebrew/nixpkgs20:45:41

I think there's some of that, but it's worse in the macOS context, we have to work explicitly against macOS, so if there's a macOS issue that hampers Nix operations, we have to know about it, work on it, etc.

@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusSure, we do not care too much about Debian shooting themselves in the foot when they ship nix-bin as a package and disable sandbox by default and people complains about not having sandboxes.00:46:19
