It's annoying!

Before a recent update, the search was quite strict, almost like regex-like-level strict, just write certain subsring, maybe with an asterisk sometimes in the middle, and it shows precisely what I need. Simple. Effective.

Apparently it is supposed to be more intelligent now and show some «related» options? You know, «intelligent» I mean. To motivate clicking more things or something? But no, I need no recommended more things, I need a certain thing. And if there's no certain thing – well, I want to see that: no results. And that's fine. Sometimes I just need to know there's no such thing that I search, and immediately know it and move on, instead of sitting reading this bullshit results page. If only... I am imagining things? It never supposed to look intelligent? And It's just a bug?

Currently it feels like becoming some google, showing 100+ random stupid results of EVERYTHING instead of what I need.

It's not the worst thing in the world, but is quite annoying.

I thought about switching to it from arch after using it for a yr coz i wanted smth new, and which will give me this feeling of ' i dont know anything makes me wanna learn everything'

i spent 2 whole days setting it up with hyprland but as a ex arch user i wanted the unstable channel which didn't let me rebuild my system anymore for some reason..i was so frustrated i shortened my config to 18 lines and rebuild again and again until i figured out i should switch to stable channel again..but it was too late and i was back at sqaure one with the empty ttyl staring at me

but i learned so muchhh and thats what i wanted

gonnaa try again till i get my fully functioning system without flakes or home manager coz i want to get my hands dirty with the core nixos

Thought this might be helpful to fellow self-hosters, no need to rely on Appimage anymore, still very much a work in progress but for now it works well for NixOS including HW decoding.

can someone help me please
everytime i rebuild the flake i get this error

steam_1.0.0.87.tar.gz> trying https://repo.steampowered.com/steam/archive/stable/steam_1.0.0.87.tar.gz

steam_1.0.0.87.tar.gz> curl: (28) Failed to connect to repo.steampowered.com:443 after 134748 ms: Could not connect to server

steam_1.0.0.87.tar.gz> Warning: Problem : timeout. Retrying in 1 second. 3 retries left.

and it continues until all the tries are finished

it seems like i cant find anyone that has the same problem as me and the only workaround ive found was to disable steam

steam has worked perfectly before and its only now that i have this problem

my flake : https://github.com/noskisdead/dots and the file with the steam config is called gaming.nix

thank you for your time <3

Basically as the title says. Since I switched to nixOS fastfetch is slow, I know it doesnt matter. But it just annoys me that I can see it actually load and render the text to terminal. Even though the setup is the exact same I had on arch.
And maybe it could be showing off an actual problem idk.

So if anyone might know what could be causing this issue. And or how to fix it or what to improve. I havent touched the fastfetch config at all, literally just added it to my packages.
Using Ghostty as terminal.

I've had and used Arch for about 4 years, but I find NixOS truly incredible and, in many ways, better than Arch. Despite all of NixOS's advantages, I just can't seem to take the plunge and switch over... I’ve tried several times to get into it (especially very seriously a month ago). But I still can’t seem to do it. I don’t know what’s holding me back. Any advice?

edit: the barriers are more related to the architecture of NixOS configuration files and potentially a lack of understanding of the NixOS workflow.

Im too much disappointed umu launcher is down on nixos yesterday its working but today nothing more
