Personally, I’m looking forward to native Wayland support for Wine and KDE’s port to Qt 6.

    Garuda only exists because the only way to distribute a set of default configuration in regular distros is to create a whole new distro/installer. We don’t have that problem in NixOS because all configuration is declarative and composable.

    In the NixOS world, Garuda would be a NixOS base config which users would import in their own config and extend with their own configuration. You’d still be using NixOS though.

      If you’re packaging enough changes that somebody would say it’s a different experience, calling it the “X configuration” vs “X distribution” based on how it’s packaged is just splitting hairs.
