Find different channels and substitute servers or create your own

I wonder how many accounts on Lemmy.world are cia-bots that keep repeating the `China uses slave labour" mantra

Proof or I don't believe.

 

Almost every website and services are getting scraped at alarming rate, are Lemmy servers facing this issue?

Please share mitigations you've seen applied to this.

Have you heard of substitutes? They get the job done.

Check out how to use them in the manual above.

personally I like Arch first and foremost because I can (and do) have a local repo by rsyncing a rotation of mirrors couple of times a week.

Are these mirrors for prebuilt packages? If not, you should be able to pull from other channels, create your own channel and include all your packages while building them locally.

Also, welcome to Guix System Distribution, I hope you stick around

Let's say I'm working on a project that requires Go, Node, maybe some C library, and GNU Make. Seems like I would be able to use guix shell for this, right? Great.

Iirc guix shell is for one off package or programs you want to test, say you want to quickly format a drive to exfat or so, when you exit the sub-shell, the installed packages are discarded

guix shell containers would work best for your scenario but I have little experience with them

Size and gnome/GTK dependencies are main reasons why I don't use Flatpaks (I have nothing against gnome though, it just pulls in too much and KDE is worse in this regards, which is why I use Sway and River)

You can try deleting old profiles and then garbage-collect the installation, only the last generation will remain

I'm just seeing your comment after I recommended Guix, that I could read and understand Guile Scheme is what made me hop away from NixOS, the nixlang is an ungrokable mess

 

Forgive my bad alt text writing :)

 

Replacement of Guile's garbage collector

 

The author replaced a garbage collector with another for Guile, a Scheme dialect, both gcs are written in C
