Its even worse when you force Firefox to use wayland its icon doesn't even show.

Edit: Oh since everyone now is confused; I only have the flatpak version of Firefox installed yet it doesn't use the pinned icon and doesn't even use the firefox icon under wayland at all.

I am very impressed by nix. I have tried nixOS and it was very nice. But, I might have to try the package manager as a standalone to see how I like that.

@lambda a lot of people do nix-env -ia nameOfPackage. I would recommend doing it properly with a file, and you just direct that command to the file (I would probably setup an alias). It gives you that declarative nature that nix is known for.

I'll try that for sure. I need to lookup if nix packages work on Steam Deck..

[-] zbecker@mastodon.zbecker.cc 0 points 1 year ago

@lambda they should if you use the single user command. The command that does it for the whole system requires root access, something you don't have on the deck.

[-] lambda@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

You can get root very easily. But, updates wipe out all but your home directory. So, I think you'd do the single user that you are referencing for that reason.

Oh I didn't know, I just remembered reading that it utilizes an immutable filesystem and thought that it also doesn't give root access as well. That's good to hear though.

[-] lambda@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, it's immutable until you run the command steamos-readonly disable IIRC.

Oh, good on valve for making that easy to undo, albeit until you update.
