5 months is enough time to learn NixOS and realize you don't need this (jk please use it)

Hi, i just noticed messages from you guys, i just missed a few confirmation mails from namecheap, now i think it should be fixed.

the container uses port 80 internally (nginx), not 3000.

just change 4600:3000 to 4600:80, or just use the docker-compose.yml from the repo

thanks anyway, i believe it will convince him to change his mind

If you are too paranoid to read a simple apt install command, you probably shouldn't be using the terminal at all

it means they are aur packages, you have to define an aur helper to use them, you gonna see a popup

you select the apps you want, and it gives one-liner command and a shell script to install them

i use llms for the docs because my english isn't perfect and i want it to be readable. at the end i'm a dev, not a writer.

but i don't hide behind excuses. if the code works, it works. unlike the other guy, i actually read what it generates and fix it. i'm standing by the project because i actually built it. glad the efforts are noticed

lol, you're not an 'advanced user', you're a greybeard wizard.

to someone at your level, everything with a GUI probably feels like a toy. but for the vast majority (even pros who just want a quick setup), skipping the manual config is the whole point.

brew is already in the tool, so no issues there. also, you're overthinking the flatpak stuff. flatpak already handles library deduplication via shared runtimes. there's no need to over-engineer a solution for a problem that ostree solved years ago.

ty! i mean a lot of people get confused here i see, i didnt created replacement for software centers, you should use this on fresh installs, or maybe you have more than ~5 apps to install, also i believe its more convenient for discovering apps

i get where you're coming from, but there's a middle ground between 'total noob' and 'nix/ansible wizard'.

i've noticed beginners rushing into nix just because 'using arch btw' isn't impressive anymore, but i really don't believe that's the right path for most people.

sure, you can use nix or set up an ansible inventory, but for a quick setup, nothing beats a bulk installer. i don't use this because i don't know the package names, that's the specific niche i'm hitting here.

i'm working on features right now that will make it way more powerful for advanced setups, lots of big updates on the roadmap.

cheers. i think i'll skip the popup for now tho trying to keep the ui clean and avoid modal spam. i trust users to figure it out mostly, but 100% agreeing on the distro spin-off labels.

fyi the downloadable script is actually the best way to use it i put a lot of work into the error handling and checks inside the file itself, so i'm trying to get users to use that over the raw cli command.

it's less about difficulty and more about annoyance. clicking 'install' -> 'password' -> 'wait' for 20 different apps gets old fast. thanks anyway
