Uğur Erdem Seyfi ☛ Why I'm Leaving NixOS After a Year?
Well, it’s been about a year since I published that post. Since then, I’ve experimented with more setups, tried different programs, and started managing my own server with NixOS. And… Contrary to my initial expectations that I would get a better return on investment from NixOS with more usage, but the opposite happened.

Ben Hutchings: FOSS activity in July 2025
In July I attended DebCamp and DebConf in Brest, France. I very much enjoyed the opportunity to reconnect with other Debian contributors in person. I had a number of interesting and fruitful conversations there, besides the formally organised BoFs and talks.

Debconf 25 came to the end in Brest, France this year a couple weeks ago.
This has been a very different and unusually interesting Debconf. For me it was for two, related reasons: for one the conference was close enough in Western Europe that I could simply drive there with a car (which reminds me that I should make a blog post about the BMW i5, before I am done with it at the end of this year) and for the other - the conference is close enough to Western Europe that many other Debian developers could join this year who have not been seen at the event for many years. Being able to arrive early, decompress and spend extra time looking around the place made the event itself even more enjoyable than usual.
