  • Flakes aren't real and cannot hurt you: using Nix flakes the non-flake way
    6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 9 Jan 2024
    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.

  • Which package manager should I use?
    5 projects | /r/emacs | 12 Apr 2023
    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.

  • Emacs 29 is nigh What can we expect?
    31 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Nov 2022
    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.

    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.
