I'm running gnome in fedora silverblue on an Intel 13" Framework and I only get ~6 hours of battery life doing web browsing, school work, light programming, and watching videos.

They prpbably mean their node.js compatibility.

What does your environment look like on NixOS? I had trouble connecting Phoenix to Postgres and ended up using SQLite for my test project. Do you have a database configured in shell.nix somehow?

Home Manager really doesn’t lead to many problems, and if you encounter any the NixOS community is wonderful. You can set up everything without understanding much of the Nix language by looking at other people’s configs on GitHub.

Regolith Linux 4 years ago

I tried regolith for a few days and am now using arch with sway window manager. From what I remember, regolith was mostly default i3 bindings along with a handy cheat sheet that would pop up. I agree completely about the productivity boost.

Battery life on mine with a pretty minimal Arch install and TTY is around 10 hours when doing light web browsing and programming. Only problems I’ve had are hardware related. The trackpad isn’t 100% reliable (sometimes clicks don’t work and I have to press hard to get it to work again) and the hinge is far too loose. Love the laptop overall.
