should we remove experimental commands from the stable nix manual?
In the documentation team so far we have consensus that, yes, we should not assume or nudge people to use what is not stable. But we also want to document flakes as good as we can, ideally to be ready in sync with a stable release.

@winterqt:nixos.devWinter (she/her)But yes, opening a PR is preferred if you want to do so :)05:50:20

@luxus:furiosa.orgluxus fricklerhandwerk: thanks for your lecture.. i really felt stupid yesterday for not understanding. vielen danke 😄 10:01:54
@fricklerhandwerk:matrix.orgfricklerhandwerk luxus: With pleasure. In fact, I forgot to add one of the most important things I regularly tell people about Nix: If you feel confused, that's not because you're stupid but because it is confusing, and we want to do something about it. 22:46:57
@luxus:furiosa.orgluxusi got a lot working by now.. but stuff like flake configs for gpg, darwin/nixos, secrets, and deploy are really hard stuff 22:49:50
@luxus:furiosa.orgluxusif you need any feedback or any tests or experiments i would love to help 😄 your lecture is my favourite so far! 22:51:33
