Does NOT delete any files that were written to, for example, ~/.local or ~/.config from dev shell.

One of OP's problems was,

I’m making a mess of config files and extras.

Any files created by programs running in the dev environments will remain.

NixOS containers could do what OP's asking for, but it'll be trickier with just nix (on other distro). It'll handle build dependencies and such, but you'll still need to keep your home or other directories clean some other way.

How does Tor help ssh behind NAT?

1. Not open source.
2. Can't customise my feed in any way. It's full of creators I don't like who post a lot of videos.

That's not what libertarians believe though. Whether they're right or not is a separate issue. The point is, they exist, and I'd expect them to also like decentralized social networks (like they like decentralized finance).

I guess most pro-capitalism people don't mind corporate-controlled social media, and so have stayed on reddit. I don't know why there aren't more anti-monopolistic pro-capitalism libertarians here, though...

NixOS does that well. I never quite managed to figure out a solution to this on other distros (which is actually what led me into making the jump in the end).

Kind of - but a lot of my communities just don't get more than one post per day, so that limits the diversity a lot.

For me at least, that's true on lemmy, but not so much on kbin - my feed there is seems to include smaller communities too.

I didn't know that kbin microblogs also pull Mastodon posts by hashtags! That's a really nice feature.

BTW can Lemmy communities also have tags? None of the ones I subscribe to seem to have any...

I want to be able to create my own if I want to. But also I think it's important not to make everyone recreate that same work. Do it say, they should be public by default, with the option to make a private one.
