A lot of the world can’t just drink tap water with a basic filter

& abduco can work if you only need attach/detach

AUR has a lot of packages but still nowhere near as much as Nixpkgs

So? Not everything is packaged on all distros & you can benefit from sharing & reusing declarative configuration even if for specific scopes (meaning not just NixOS).

Just use Nix. It can run all the packages on whatever platform. It has the largest repository of software & are some of the most up-to-date.

Hardly. It has shackled itself to Git’s internal format. There are more innovative VCSs than it.

Truly free… yet in its fork of Gitea it is copying more Microsoft GitHub features like Action YAML spaghetti instead of offering an improvement. Instead of being a better offering than Microsoft, they are cloning even more features where it is even more of a hard sell IMO by not offering anything new in the experience.

Note that Git also isn’t the only distributed version control system (DVCS); there maybe be other alternatives out there for you not just in code forge but the system underneath it too.

GitLab is open core, not open source. It is also a publicly-traded company in the US that does have shareholder obligations—which should cause some sort of long-term hesitation. It does have a better CI/CD system than the Microsoft product & the community edition can be self-hosted.

Tried it for a month, but key combos conflict far too often & I do not perceive it as fast as tmux.

This is sometimes true, but I would rather have a slightly worse UI and/or have to use 2 applications for more specific tasks than trading off data just to have everything under one bloated umbrella.

But also be proven right several times a year when data leaks & corporations are shown again to be evil.
