2·11 months agoI absolutely hate the language
Check out Guix_System_Distribution, it’s just like NixOS but uses a Scheme dialect which is a better language.

WhatsApp recently pulled support for some older iOS versions and devices, a lot of ppl threw them away and got Androids instead(as they should), I wonder if that’s related to iOS’s decrease.
Please do so, it’ll be very useful
