Cool, thanks a lot. Some good ideas to further boil it down

@enn_:matrix.orgenn_👋 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 😅17:51:29

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.
