Looks like #NixOS is still growing Commit statistics on #nixpkgs

Hey #NixOS people and #linux self hosters. I'm curious to know if something like this already exists or should I make it.

1. I guess a DNS server locally that can look for requests to nix cache url, and redirects it to a local server

2. A service that catches this request (nginx I guess) and checks to see if the file exists locally, if it does, serve it, if not, download it then serve it.

Possible?

a whole 512GiB disk for #nixos and it's still running out of disk space if I try to upgrade without with garbage collecting first.

Even after garbage collection, it takes 90% of the disk...

Added a new page on the #NixOS wiki about #Plausible, an open source alternative to Google Analytics https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Plausible

It's that time of the year again when I'm contemplating switching from nixos-24.11 to nixos-unstable for my desktop, in anticipation of 25.05.

who runs their homelab on #nixos? is there an easy way to do user auth across different services?

i would only need support for 5-20 users.

Birkenhackers powering up our Apple IIGS late for #Marchintosh, we needed to use a projector since it was the only thing lying around supporting 15kHz VGA signals.

On a sidenote, we've been using a OnePlus 6 running #nixos as our web browsing and research machine.

What I want is #NixOS but run by people who actually care about other people, and not just about computers

Added a small wiki page for the monitoring web app Uptime Kuma #NixOS https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Uptime_Kuma

I continue to be incredibly frustrated with how difficult it is to fabricate a test virtual machine from an arbitrary #NixOS configuration and have that test virtual machine actually match the real thing on basic details like the (virtualized) disk layout and filesystem mounts.

Maybe I'm doing something weird here, but basically all the tests I want to do before pulling the trigger on a real installation are invalidated by this semantic gap!

Client just ordered 5 more of my nixos slideshow boxes. I think it's been a success. #nixos #xibo

I think I'm nearly ready to release the first version of wpm - a process manager for #Windows inspired by my experiences using #systemd and #NixOS, written in #Rust

Setting up custom desktop environments and complex local development environments on Windows is about to get a whole lot easier - goodbye Docker!

I really wish whoever runs nixos.wiki would shut it down and just setup a redirect to wiki.nixos.org instead #nixos

Some cleanup to the #Caddy #NixOS wiki page, especially documentation on the new plugin support with NixOS 25.05 https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Caddy#Plug-ins

How do I add a package to a #NixOS overlay for a specific architecture only?
