Linus Torvalds on why desktop Linux sucks

• nixpkgs

  973 15,656 10.0 Nix

  Nix Packages collection & NixOS

  

Yes, to add to what MaybeAStonedGuy is saying: Here's a recent (somewhat naive) check for the various rust crates that are packaged in nixpkgs: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/141368

• com.discordapp.Discord

  67 113 7.7 Python
  

• WorkOS

  workos.com sponsored

  The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  

• AppImageKit

  133 8,438 2.9 C

  Package desktop applications as AppImages that run on common Linux-based operating systems, such as RHEL, CentOS, openSUSE, SLED, Ubuntu, Fedora, debian and derivatives. Join #AppImage on irc.libera.chat

  

• nushell

  212 29,864 9.9 Rust

  A new type of shell

  

There's also Nushell, which I've never used, which is similar to Powershell in that commands return structured data rather than text, but I believe has a more functional-inspired approach, rather than object-oriented.

• flatpak

  431 4,049 9.0 C

  Linux application sandboxing and distribution framework

  

This is exactly what flatpak is trying to solve. A package and distribution system that works across Linux distributions.

  70 3 2.8

  Pull requests for new applications to be added (by x80486)

You can checkout flathub, a store based on this technology: https://flathub.org

• sanoid

  118 2,872 7.1 Perl

  These are policy-driven snapshot management and replication tools which use OpenZFS for underlying next-gen storage. (Btrfs support plans are shelved unless and until btrfs becomes reliable.)
