Might be true, honestly. I'm on NixOS using the proprietary drivers for my 3080 and 4090. No issues, took one line of configuration. I do have to stay on X11 unfortunately until Wayland supports the real drivers at least (though i hear that's being worked on, maybe already working?).

For all of NixOS' pain, it really does make some things awesome and simple.

PSA: while upvoting exists, to get the "move closer to the top" effect that reddit's upvote had, you need to click boost in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social

Yea, i'm working on my own Fedi software and i'm struggling with the point of boosting in the link aggregator context. It's an odd overlap with Reddit-style reposting to appropriate subs, but based on the user.

It makes sense in the Twitter UX, but i struggle to find it's place in the Reddit UX.

YSK that kbin.social is now federating, adding hundreds of communities and ~26k more users content in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

Oh, i actually didn't know Kbin (despite these posts lol) was being seen from Lemmy. Iirc when i first saw Kbin a few days ago, Kbin could see Lemmy but Lemmy couldn't see Kbin. Ie it's like it was a partial federation.

I'm curious on if that was accurate and if it was, what caused it in a technical sense. Given i'm a dev working on some ActivityPub stuff, i'm quite interested in it. Though i've not yet used the spec, clearly hah.
