kmplsvmy friend who is helping me is a genius, he's just super stubborn. i told him that i wanted to start with something like ubuntu because it has a large community and i'd almost always be able to find an answer.08:56
techiedcurious what made you feel stock is bloated?08:56
lotuspsychjei guess if you came from gentoo compile everything from scratch, any other distro is bloat :p08:56
lotuspsychjeall depends on the idea of what bloat is too08:57
kmplsvhe said nope, nixos or nothing. so great, i have to try to relearn linux (difficult enough as it is), AND all the quirks for nixOS being a declarative OS and all. don't get me wrong, i know there are situations where nixOS is great, it just isn't a good first stepping stone in my opinion. it's more like diving head-first off of the cliff.08:57
kmplsvohhh, i guess the big giant sidebar, the theme, i realize it's stuff i can change, and i can change the WM, but mehhh.08:58
kmplsvmainly it was the partition issues i was running into08:58
