I’ve been using my keyboard, Toast, for two years. I use it with a modified Miryoku layout with Colemak DH. It’s for work, travel and at home.

I open-sourced Toast too

I also built half an MX-switch Helix to have a fully programmable gaming keypad for home.

I’ve run Linux for years on servers and in VMs in VMware Workstation, but not my main OS because of games. I’ve tried before but games just didn’t work well. Tried again recently and the games I’m playing now worked with no issues with Lutris and Steam. I could already do “everything else” on Linux so this is the longest I’ve gone without booting back to my Windows disk. Already have a Kali VM in virt-manager and will add a Windows VM if I hit an application snag. But so far haven’t had any app issues. If this continues I’ll be wiping the Windows disk to make more space for Linux.

What Vivaldi features do you feel are game changing? I’m not that familiar with it and would love to hear from someone who uses Vivaldi.

I want to learn and experiment with fully configuring a single user NixOS installation that is declarative. I've found quite a bit on the NixOS system-land side, but when I go into Home Manager user-land I'm not seeing very much around configuring the Desktop. I usually use XFCE but in trying to work with it I kept running across posts about how it wasn't well supported. So I tried KDE but found the same.What is the best supported Desktop with Home Manager? Or do folks just do the basics with nix stuff, and end up pulling in the rest of the config info into the home directory (like from a repo) as a work-around? Basically use nix stuff to retrieve files and put them into the correct destinations.
