With that, I’m starting a contest (the prize is the honor of being texted by me that you won):
Guess how much it will take me to break the system beyond repair. I will deliberately do stupid things such as using random niche bootloaders, bcachefs and whatever else is suggested in comments.
If I can’t break the system in like 2 weeks, I’m installing that NixOS config regardless of this challenge.
Yep, that’s it. Thanks for participation and don’t break your system.
Edit: I’m not going with bcachefs. Thanks Linus


Install sway on it as an added difficulty; you can modify your config as you see fit to improve your experience.
nah go with DWL or DWM with several patches. use ST and dmenu and patch those too. Patch the bar several times then try to add systray.

Is using cosmic too easy to make it unstable? ;)

I’ve been daily driving cosmic for 6 months and it’s worked great. I guess if you’re trying unconventional stuff you might get into breaking it, but otherwise you’ll just find some minor annoyances.
