@CarlHedgren@LukasHozda it's not really about bugs, but about general self-modifications. I don't like knowing that theres probably some crust that would go away if I reinstalled everything. its why I reinstalled Linux like every two years before switching to NixOS (there you know what the system has)
@LukasHozda or it makes a tool for itself and a few weeks later autolith ships a similar tool. do I tell it to somehow remove the commit that added the tool?
@LukasHozda ok but tell me this, what happens when the bug gets fixed upstream?
serious question because this sort of drift irks me. how does it get reconciled?
@PaulSkallas I wrote about that insufferable hack extensively in my blog. The screenshot shows an excerpt. You can read the rest here: https://t.co/dEOi1Fy2fy
