Dang, that actually looks great if you ask me! I see your point though, stretching it properly sounds like hell lol.

Laughed out loud at your 💀 here lol, now that’s a perfectly executed self jab

+1 for bazzite, if I wasn’t a NixOS cultist it’s probably what I’d still be daily driving. Stable, easy rollbacks, keeps itself updated as long as you reboot now and then. Just a great experience all around.

Atomic distros are still distros, you’ll notice op never excluded that particular kind

a cat is fine too

Goddammit lol, been a while since I’ve seen that referenced anywhere

Damn, I didn’t even realize that was doable lol. At least the nix part, the rest definitely sounds like stuff I might’ve accidentally done myself while learning the ropes.

Lol my workplace ships Angular in debug mode. Don’t worry though, the whole page kills itself if a dubious third-party library detects the console is open. Very secure and not brittle at all! Please send help

Right, thanks for the input. I used to use it for unimportant stuff like game storage so it’s entirely possible errors just went unnoticed 😅

Said drive is a new one for media and regular everyday usage, not the existing backup drive according to the OP. Btrfs is more than stable enough barring specific RAID configurations, at any rate.

Yeah I guess exfat is the way to go then, it’s how I handle my external SSD rn as well

Edit: Also, I’m not sure how well btrfs handles external drives. Didn’t realize that when I suggested it.

Ah, now that’s a scare! Glad you mostly managed to recover at any rate.

As for the fs to use, exfat is probably a safer bet but btrfs is also an option. I’ve used winbtrfs in the past and it works surprisingly well.

I don’t suppose you’re thinking of the system BlendOS uses, right? It’s the closest I can think of based on your description but it doesn’t seem to fit the timeframe.

No such thing, we all start somewhere! :)

Anyway, you could in fact do that if you were thinking of trying out other Fedora Atomic images such as Silverblue and whatnot (see also the ublue page listing tons of others, including your bazzite!). This uses different tooling, so unfortunately not in this case.

I overshare my Nix setup at the slightest hint it could be relevant and I also feel like I’ve shilled Bazzite at least once basically every week or so ever since I created this account, but I guess I’ll settle for second place 😛

Joking aside, thanks for sharing, that was a great read. Good for newcomers and skepticals alike IMO, I’ll keep it handy!
