Echoing this but change if to since :/

Ma-trix! Ma-trix!

Wild how you happened to have this totally original idea days after this exact diagram structure was in a video posted by a channel with 3M subscribers :) crazy coincidence

My favorite line in the fireship video this is from goes something like "FreeBSD is the real answer but I like being able to Google things"

I was going to say Guix but I've always been a little Gentoo curious

There's something to practicing with the operating system family that most big commercial outfits use. Plus SELinux is neat, and there's no Canonical ads.

I use Fedora with home-manager, btw. After using Arch and Debian for years I really think Fedora (or adjacent like Nobara) is on its way to being the de facto starter distro.

Wrong™ in 100 seconds

A rich person runs NixOS (for the military contracts apparently)

Avoid AMD? Why do you say that?

I use my Framework 13 (Intel 12th gen) for some heavy CPU workloads and it's been a champ! For the balance of quality, performance, cost, and repairability I really don't think it can be beat.

You beat me to it! I have the same setup. Did you have any issues with the 39->40 update? It broke my icons in plasma

Ooh, I'll definitely check out Voice!

I'm more of a desktop Jellyfin container person myself, but all roads lead to Rome in this case :) thanks for the input!

Does anyone know of a good alternative for Android?

Right now I just use Antennapod, but it would be nice to get chapters and whatnot built in.

Agreed. That said, with a few remotes and a cron job git could facilitate "duct tape and zip ties" federation.

Heh, ligma. Nice.

Hm, so it's encrypted from your beeper client to the bridge, decrypted, then re-encrypted with the outgoing platform's protocol. Seems like a good reason to host your own bridge, and a good call on it being a glaring attack surface.

Seems like the secret sauce is in how they deal with messaging platform integrations? Maybe the goal is to avoid another iMessage lawsuit. With Beeper as a proof of concept it would be cool to start adding integrations in a fully open source way (legality permitting)

That's a cool solution! I'd be interested in making a nix flake to do something similar to that Ansible project. Thanks for linking!!

Agreed! I'm pretty psyched about their transparency and the overall model. Especially in the universe where this Apple lawsuit results in Beeper being allowed to connect to iMessage again.

Would love to hear any results you find with hosting! I'll give it a try too and maybe do a follow on post with what I learn.

Try this, friend

In my head they're different use cases. Nix is amazing for a living build. Ansible is more pigeon-holed to production systems where you don't want (or need) that history baked into every system
