Last I saw you have to sign up for their waitlist. Didn’t realize you could install from aur. Do you need an account or does it just work after installing?

Try this site and pin the ones you like to compare really easily. You can also change the code to whatever you like.

I think my main is Hack, though I really like Pragmata and Gintronic. Jetbrains and Firacode are pretty cool, though I much prefer the first three to either, and Jetbrains to firacode.

One thing I really like about Hack and Gintronic is the very laid back parentheses. They don't try to enclose the characters inside them like some fonts. They're both very readable, hack is compact, gintronic is more extended but it has this feeling of everything being a logical block. Pragmata I really like but hard to actually compare it because it's not on the site I shared above. Pragmata is I think as good as hack and gintronic, and it has the added benefit of having ligatures and nerd font glyphs built in! I'd probably prefer hack or gintronic overall if they had these features but they don't.

This guy really loves fantasy. His enthusiasm is really infectious! Gonna have to pick up a few of these based on his recommendation.

Nushell support feature request

It's worse. Fig is a freemium product that aims to get you on a subscription model. This all but guarantees enshittification. Also fig is currently Mac only. The UI is also kinda gauche

Spam bro, you're spamming so much random garbage. What the hell

If someone isn't overwhelmed or underwhelmed, they're whelmed by default.

Well a lot of what I like I can just download from qobuz or spotify. Lots of other stuff I can find on nicotine. What's most difficult though, is obscure artists in the electronic, experimental and art music genres. For example one of my tests for how thorough a catalog is is by searching for classical composers Taneyev and Arensky, or the electronic artist Forss (who coincidentally founded soundcloud). I especially like to look for lossless audio like flac

Good find dude! You’re a true matey today

No worries, I hadn’t seen the font resources from the mega thread so hopefully some folks get some use out of it. I’m just looking for a very specific font

Ahh right on, I’ll take a look!

Pirates were very design conscious. I mean the skull and crossbones is known across generations and cultures. They would very much support these efforts!

I did some research yesterday and it looks like silver blue has some rebase command that does something similar. Universal Blue is using that to make it easy to switch between DEs, netting a very similar result!

I actually found this exact gist in my search. Unfortunately this one is just a gist of css, not the font.

Rad, Red is impossible to get into. That would be a dream actually. Of all things, music is the hardest for me to find in high quality. I would so appreciate if you were to share if you find the font there!

I rest my case

In that case, wouldn't it be possible to try this on any distro? Just make a new user per DE? Also, I think what they're pointing out is that you can change DE and rollback to where you were before

Yeah it's not in a useable state. If you do a custom partition, it installls the bootloader wrong lol

nixos-rebuild build-vm

wow. I gotta check out nixos. That is incredible. Do you happen to know if fedora silverbue or any of the other immutable distros do this, or is this something specific to nixos?
