know the feel. even funkier with ssh/scp and the like with every other tool using a different case argument for the same

that’s how we learn and grow, i guess 🤷

happens to the best. if fail2ban were any more resiliently engineered it would have failed to start due to the error in the config file

GNU Guix

WDYM the repos are very slow?

i’m using it as a daily driver for a couple of years now

it is built so that non-free packages can be made easily available (e.g. the non-guix channel). being sort of a meta-OS, already a bunch of operating systems were built on top of it, arguably easier to just get started as a novice

As a counterpoint to the majority of answers here, I’d love to suggest GNU Guix as the best answer. Like Nix, but enhanced for freedom with a formidable governance model. Built on freedom. Built to last forever. Also easier and more beautiful
