@glyph @puppygirlhornypost2 side note, this straw poll informed my current thinking of how best to do the thing: https://mastodon.gamedev.place/@aeva/111880256412614427
I used to think that authoring a guix or nix package would be desirable, because guix and nix can be installed cooperatively on whichever distro and let me pretend Linux is a real platform. But that was what people wanted *the least*
@aeva @glyph @puppygirlhornypost2 just as an aside, getting nix installed on an immutable distro (bazzite in my case) involves a fair amount of distrobox wrangling in my experience.
@cthos @glyph @puppygirlhornypost2 oof I didn't think about that. I don't really have a good read on how popular immutable distros are or whether they're likely to be the standard at some point in the future.
@aeva @cthos @puppygirlhornypost2 FWIW the _massive_ improvement to reliability when macOS added SIP suggests to me that immutable distros are definitely the future
@aeva @glyph @puppygirlhornypost2 I know Silverblue tracks installs by default (unless you disable that option) so there are probably some numbers floating around. I also don't know how popular they are but I've been very happy with how "me-proof" Bazzite has been.
@glyph @cthos @puppygirlhornypost2 well, I'm open minded to the concept, I'm just mostly unfamiliar with it.
