# what_i_use
Nix
- Nixlang is a DSL (We hate DSLs)
- Nixlang could very easily have just been lua. (it would probably also have been faster too.)
- NixOS is the opposite of simple.
- NixOS hard depends on systemd, and many other unnecessarily large software (We like choice)
- NixOS, because of all of its hard dependencies, ends up being incredbily bloated in comparison to similar systems.
- NixOS hides the majority of your system's backend under layers of abstraction.
- nixpkgs is very poorly maintained and has terrible support for essential software like librewolf.
- "muh pure functional programming"

Q: Why don't you host game servers?
A:
- Game servers tend to be proprietary
- Open source game servers tend to be servers that require you to have installed a proprietary client to join.
- Games are expensive to host, and we can't afford to.
- It's much easier to cause damage to the server host through a video game - intentionally or not - which could have a disasterous effect on other things like XMPP.
Q: Cat?
A: Her name is Netcat and you cannot change that!!
