<ehawkvu_m>I think all of the improvements would be to remove more features and make things more agnostic
<ehawkvu_m>like updating repos
<ehawkvu_m>like in an ideal world we would have no git specific code
<ehawkvu_m>then repos could be VC agnostic
<vova>oh yeah I see
<ehawkvu_m>virtual packages would be nice aswell
<ehawkvu_m>although I think a provides system is more pressing - the provides would allow us to have way less package forks
<ehawkvu_m>but work on whatever motivates you tbh
<ehawkvu_m>things move glacially slow here
<vova>I just want kiss to become attractive lol
<vova>I used it a good year, a few years ago, and I still think it's my favourite distro
<vova>only issue is... yeah things move slowllllllly there
<ehawkvu_m>its certainly my favorite *linux* distro
<ehawkvu_m>but I've been considering moving almost all of my computers over to FreeBSD or OpenBSD
<ehawkvu_m>and using kiss.el to manage packages on them
<vova>I'd try (again) Open or Net when they will support Wayland lol
<vova>Free is a mess IMHO, it's the archlinux of BSD
<ehawkvu_m>Free still has code miles above nearly anything GNU though
<ehawkvu_m>I've become much more partial to the Cathedral development model than the Bazaar
<vova>yeah I agree
<vova>everything GNU related is just poorly written
<vova>glibc's code is unreadable lmao
<vova>GCC is even worst
<ehawkvu_m>I think GNU makes the tradeoff that "portability" and "extensibility" trump any other goal
<ehawkvu_m>so we have to have a million and one macros that each expand different sections of the code based on what the user configured it to support
<vova>yep
<ehawkvu_m>The only GNU codebase that is *somewhat* well maintained is Emacs imo
<ehawkvu_m>it still has the usual GNU warts, but people are much more willing to be opinionated when it matters
<vova>yeah but Emacs is Emacs
<vova>I hate it for some reason
<vova>it just feels way too bloat
<ehawkvu_m>that's fair - it's a requirement if you want a lisp-focused system though
<ehawkvu_m>since it has had decades of development whereas lem has had many a couple of years?
