Well let's see if it is worth it or if I go back to debian.

I did install vlc. I started vlc. I noticed completely wrong subtitle size. I went to settings and tried to change some and save. Vlc throws an error it can't save the file, permission error.

I install vlc with flatpak. Same subtitle error. I go to the settings, I don't get an error but the settings don't change anything.

Also almost anything i do in the plasma settings doesn't get saved.

And that shit should only be saved in the home folder.

I think I have to clean my home folder.

But then I have to do the setup of plasma again.

    Damn, that sucks.

    I gave up on nixos long before getting to that point. On Debian I use apt for to install a few user packages like alacritty because of Nix issues. Everything else is pretty much the same linux experience.

    The concept is a great idea.

    The documentation is rare and the atomic behaviour seems to break my whole Linux work flow.

    Which is a good thing I guess. But I can't Google "how to do x on nixos" and get a reasonable answer. I get nothing. Or some weird forums where I don't know what they are talking about.
