Flakes aren't real and cannot hurt you: using Nix flakes the non-flake way
I am intrigued by this line in the description:
"Super Fast Emacs: Bleeding edge Emacs that fixes itself, thanks to a community overlay"
Could you possibly tell me (or link to the explanation) what's special about that Emacs instance? (I'll update this comment if I find a link myself)
I use this homebrew cask and have been very happy with it thus far, but I'm always up for some new exploration. https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus

Emacs 29.1 Released
Oh, I just realized I'm using https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus . I recommend using that over the default formula.
- Thinking about buying a macbook, does Emacs work well?
-
Change the emacs theme to light/dark according to the system theme
There is the code to do just that. Works with emacs-mac and emacs-plus.

Need Help with Emacs as a Noob
Firstly as others have mentioned, the default Emacs distribution in macOS is very old and Doom doesn’t support it. If you haven’t already you would be better off downloading a newer version. You can download it straight from the GNU website, but I recommend emacs-plus as it has some macOS niceties thrown in.

Emacs Web Buttons
Not a badge, but a modern icon https://github.com/SavchenkoValeriy/emacs-icons
ps. Emacs plus aggregates a great collection https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus#icons
- Reinstall emacs with native comp using brew on macos

Doom Emacs is broke for me and life just isn't the same
homebrew-emacs-plus generally works for me. I'd recommend it.

I asked the AI overlords for an over the top Emacs icon 😅
Awesome! You should create a PR to add it to https://github.com/d12frosted/homebrew-emacs-plus/

Flakes aren't real and cannot hurt you: using Nix flakes the non-flake way
The project uses this overlay: https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay
What that means is if something is broken in Emacs, the community will fix it, and all I need to do is run `nix flake update` to grab the latest commit and then `nix run .#build-switch` to alter my system. Easy.
Thanks for the heads-up on the 404s! I've fixed those links.
In re: to org-agenda, I don't use that as much anymore. But I heavily, heavily using org-roam w/ org-roam-dailies everyday to build my own networked graph of notes. For tasks, nowadays I just use simple docs for projects and Asana to keep a catalog of everything.

NixOS&(Home-Manager) Flake/Overlays Help
Im a newish NixOS user, Ive used it like 20 times before but always quit because I couldnt debug errors, trying not to give up for the 20th time this time lmao; so Ive been trying to learn how to use overlays & flakes for a couple of days now. The ones I want to use/enable are: - Emacs-Overlay - Spicetify-Nix
- My First Impressions of Nix
-
Which package manager should I use?
Nix offers the same advantage through the use of emacs-overlay. Besides, Nixpkgs contains more Linux packages than any other distros. Depending on the user's needs, Nix is another option.
-
It looks like the kellyk Emacs PPA is no longer maintained. Are there any alternatives?
You can use this overlay to get the latest https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay
-
Will any emacs package manager let me audit packages before installing them?
Depending on your goals, emacs-overlay is also worth a look.

dired navigation without infinite buffers
{ pkgs ? import {} }: ((import (builtins.fetchTarball { url = "https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay/archive/master.tar.gz"; })) pkgs pkgs).emacsGit

Installing Emacs 29 on Pop! OS
One option is to install Nix and use emacs-overlay.

How to use Emacs 29 Tree-sitter?
You can install Nix on your mac and use https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay/, which supports all the existing tree-sitter-based major modes OOB.
-
Emacs 29 is nigh What can we expect?
Its great to see both eglot and tree-sitter being merged. However, I am unhappy about the state of 'emacs configurations/distributions' right now. I have been using Doom Emacs, but the development is pretty much stalled there [0], and I don't think there is any distribution that is keeping up with these cutting-edge features (compared to the NeoVim ecosystem, let's say). Somehow it feels like I was seeing a lot more activity about Emacs configurations two-three years ago.
> Compile EmacsLisp files ahead of time
Ooh, this is interesting. Hoping to see a derivation in https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay soon.
[0] I am not complaining though as Doom was the main author's personal config from the get-go. I am just pointing out a void.
What are some alternatives?
