  • impermanence

    Modules to help you handle persistent state on systems with ephemeral root storage [maintainer=@talyz]

    • You might want to set up NixOS with impermanence, with something like https://github.com/nix-community/impermanence. Install an easy to use desktop environment like ElementaryOS, and configure NixOS with or without Flatpak, if you want to give the user the ability to install new software or not. Then set up automatic updates, automatic garbage collection and you have a truly stable system.

  • TextAPic

    • Sure, I made the repo public: https://github.com/gvbl/TextAPic

    I don't believe the app works any more, something has changed and I haven't investigated. I hope it's still useful for you!
