Miraiy | Are there any good resources on NixOS that explain how to set up NixOS for gaming, or any suggested public configurations I can use as a starting point? I’m looking for something more advanced than just the Vimjoyer video on the subject. For example, a kernel like the one used in CachyOS, Gamescope, etc... | 13:12:44 |
K900 | install nixos | 13:15:00 |

K900 | * 2.. install your games | 13:15:05 |
K900 | install your games | 13:15:08 |
K900 | don't listen to youtubers telling you you NEED THIS 20 AMAZING HACKS TO MAKE MORE GAMING | 13:15:37 |

Soenke Klinger | MiraiyWe have https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Category:Gaming . But normally its quite easy as K900 said. Just use steam and other availabe tools from nixpkgs. If not possible install games/programs via Flathub. And install Bottles as flatpak und run other game hubs (epic, battlenet, ..) as bottle. | 14:34:04 |
magic_rb | Use programs.steam.enable not just adding steam to systemPackages | 15:45:41 |
magic_rb | Use jovian if you want the big screen UI experienE | 15:46:02 |

niklaskorz | I'd rephrase that as console experience | 18:02:52 |
niklaskorz | no big screen on steam deck | 18:02:58 |
niklaskorz | smol screen | 18:03:04 |
Samuel | Heroic also works well on NixOS and I'd always prefer that over Bottles | 18:11:53 |
