👋 I'm a low-ish knowledge nix user & I have an idea to improve the onboarding / learning experience. What is the best thing for me to read to understand your preferred way to receive such suggestions? The tldr is I've landed at https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/e0c94b91ee7b8dd30e669228c01f1b75179f1903/src/libcmd/installable-flake.cc#L195 . My fight back to where I should be is massively more difficult that it should be. I suspect I'm the exact class/type of idiot we should be able to make more productive here 🤣. As an aside, I saw a recent post about looking for folks to help with docs and blew it off, but apparently the universe has other ideas, and here I am 😅 Welcome! For suggestions, typically they are made here, in a GitHub Issue, or by implementing the change and making a pull request to the appropriate repository. In all cases there will be an associated thread of comments and follow up suggestions. | 19:46:58 |

 Jan Tojnar | Looks like intra-manual redirects are borked too: https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.13/expressions/language-constructs.html#functions redirects to https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.13/language/language-constructs.html#functions instead of https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.13/language/constructs#functions | 07:20:48 |
| Jan Tojnar | Apparently, this https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-homepage/pull/881 has not been ported to nix.dev fricklerhandwerk | 07:26:20 |

Apparently, this https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-homepage/pull/881 has not been ported to nix.dev fricklerhandwerk Possibly. That redirect logic is now in the Nix manual, apparently I didn't backport the changes far enough into the past | 07:27:46 |
| fricklerhandwerk | If anyone's interested I'll be in https://jitsi.lassul.us/nix-documentation in 30 min and take care of it | 07:28:31 |
| Jan Tojnar | hmm, weird, the rule is there https://github.com/NixOS/nix/blob/2bd66922eef1c41e74efe1cca722b0ee7d640af1/doc/manual/src/_redirects#L26 | 07:31:31 |
| Jan Tojnar | but for some reason it appears to take the fallback branch | 07:31:55 |
| Jan Tojnar | hmm, probably because of the .html suffix | 07:33:31 |
| Jan Tojnar | https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.13/language/constructs.html | 08:17:06 |
| Jan Tojnar | * Looks like the pretty URLs does not do canonization. Here is a valid URL with HTML suffix – there is no redirect to strip it: https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.13/language/constructs.html | 08:19:06 |
