    Now I'm getting a couple of actual build errors, which are on taffybars end (the issue on github: https://github.com/taffybar/taffybar/issues/542 if anyone would like to fix it :P). I'll try installing the project from source instead and see where that takes me.

    You likely need to copy over the config file if you didn't do that already. Check the bottom of the github page. https://github.com/taffybar/taffybar

    To be short as possible, you cannot use taffybar unless you use the nix pkg manager to install it. Anyway the guide is here: - https://hackage.haskell.org/package/taffybar - https://github.com/taffybar/taffybar
