Think I'm still on keepassxc but looking to change. Bitwarden is looking good.
Do you selfhost?
Happy Birthday
Beehaw's fine, no need to promote one side of Lemmy whilst laying into another.
I appreciate the need for variety but personally value safe spaces for discussion over anons right to troll with porn.
The code base needs work to allow safe spaces to exist and integrate with anons trolling now that there are a few million accounts.
It seems much more likely beehaw defeded due to the accounts here lolzing about posting homophobic content everywhere, as the instance owner is apparently gay, & posting knobs all over the feminist spaces. I suspect your take that beehaw action's are to generate income is complete fiction, it's to limit the ability of fuckwits on the server as the current mod tools are shite.
If what I hear it's true than once a NixOS user is up and running adding additional packages and up-streaming them appears to be a fairly simple process.
Something like Arch has ~10,000 packages in the main repo and the AUR has ~70,000 packages. It's hard to get something into the Arch repo, very easy to get something into the AUR. NixOS seems like it may be a middle ground where by the time someone can grok the system they should only be a step or two away from contributing to it.
I'm sure it's a factor. I don't use Nix but from what I gather the easiest way to run a package is often to add it, and upstream are pretty accepting. The number isn't that wild if you compare it to something like Arch+AUR. Also Nix wants to do it all and replace stuff like pyp and other native package managers, I think pyp alone is responsible for >5000 nixpkgs.
If you are counting different versions then it's hundreds of thousands...and I think you can mix and match them.
Is that not what the article covers?
RHEL customers can request the source code, they cannot distribute it. If you are a RHEL customer with a license agreement, just ask. I don't think they will be sending corporate customer requests via microfiche in the post in 30 working days. Where it was once easy for anyone to get RHEL's source code, going forward it will be a service only for customers who agree to be bound by an IBM legal agreement upon receipt of code or access to the tree.
CentOS was very useful, so they bought it, let it spread and then killed it abruptly. They have since watched Oracle, Alma & Rocky offer solutions to CentOS withdrawal, make decade long promises to their customers and get comfortable before breaking the whole eco-system of decade long 'binary compatibility with RHEL' systems.
No.
But Arch supports around 14,000 packages and any branch of Nix has around 100,000 stable and 100,000 unstable packages.
It think it's more for RH/IBM to test new stuff on the community as opposed to something like Debian or Gentoo that actually has a fairly clear community commitment.
I don't recall a lot community polling and discussion when they moved to systemd, btrfs or wayland.

Linux gives you freedom.
Freedom lets you break stuff.
If, like Windows or MacOSyou just use it as intended by official support, it should be fine. If you start just adding everything and anything from anyone you're gonna break stuff.
Other stuff is made to be idiot proof, Linux is not.
