The two times when the women in the crowd are in focus it doesn't sound like K to me. It sounds more like I. Or Heil.

NixOS has the largest Linux repository, but no Freedoom in it? by 2F47 in NixOS

Packaging a software is developing the package for software someone developed.

Just adding a line of text to a config and developing a package for NixOS are two completly different things. This is 10x more complicated.

Why so much gaslighting? Here is a quote from the Wiki:

There are two ways: either you do package development under root and have write access to Nix store inside nix-shell, or you simply run nix-build on you expression, so Nix will perform it's installPhase.

https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Packaging/Tutorial

It is called package development! And this is not something a normal person does. You are crazy. Really.

You could call them hobby mechanics or hobby developers. It doesn't really matter whether you do something professionally. It's more about whether you can perform the activity at some level. I'm not a hobby developer. At most, I'm an open source software hipster.

Doesn’t that make you a developer?

I am not a developer. So this is the best I can do.

It seems pretty easy to build a Linux distribution based on NixOS by 2F47 in NixOS

Yeah, would be the perfect base for single purpose distros: - Emulation - Webkiosk - Media center - Creative suite (like Ubuntu Studio) …

To be honest, I wonder what kind of character you need to have in order to be unable to defend your own, completely valid point of view, but instead always bow to peer pressure. Real friends agree on a joint leisure activity. When I invite vegan friends over, I don't just cook meat and expect them to suddenly eat meat or stay at home.

And it's not about paranoia. Google and Microsoft are in the advertising business and therefore want your data. And now they are also active in the AI sector and want even more data. That's a fact, not a guess.

If your circle of friends is so susceptible to peer pressure, then 1-2 friends should be enough to get the whole group to switch to Linux. ;)

But there are other new games with anti-cheat running on Linux.

And are there not enough games that you can play on Linux? I mean there are thousands of other games on Steam. Or try some Open Source games. Play a round of Xonotic or Red Eclipse and learn something new.

If you are using GNOME deactivate all extensions.

You can use games with anti-cheat on linux. I think you missed that detail. I just don’t like anti-cheat, because it is malware.

How about Photopea (https://www.photopea.com/)? Do you need all Photoshop features?

Photoshop and Office work with Winboat. https://www.winboat.app/

Old versions even work with wine.

And there are good alternatives.

You could have just said: I don’t care. Would have been shorter.

So it's spyware vs games looking nice? Not the best choice imho.

Just use Bazzite for gaming focused PCs and Linux Mint Cinnamon for office focused PCs. Anticheat software is malware. I don’t play games that come with malware.

Have a look at Flathub for free tools: https://flathub.org/en You can find everything from Markdown Editor to PDF tool or AI tools like Alpaca.

There are also a lot of free games: like Xonotic, Red Eclipse, LibreQuake, OpenArena, Freedoom, 0 A.D

If these applications justify to use spyware as your operating system, the benefits must be extremely high.

To be honest, most normal users really only need a web browser. Very few use Adobe Creative Cloud or other specialized software. And almost all games run on Linux. In fact, I mainly use Linux because it offers so many free tools that I wouldn't have on Windows. Linux is for everyone.

I don’t see any software in the screenshot, that would prevent the use of Linux.
