And I can still install a snap on an Ubuntu Core machine by building my own distribution method, but it will be a downgrade from the experience of running "snap install something" that introduced me to it. So nobody does.
Lix (yes, I will mention it again) essentially exists by a large degree because the overlap between the people that control Nix and DetSys is big, even very big if you look at CppNix.

No, it exists because of sexual identity politics. 11 out of 12 of the Lix developer team are transsexuals. Clearly the selection isn't about technical issues.
Ok but they’re creating a good product, in their “own” space, not bothering anyone, and they increase competition which benefits the entire ecosystem, so to be frank… who cares?
Lix is a net win for everyone. It would behoove us to stop taking pot shots at them because if you want nix to succeed, the presence of Lix is a net positive.
Not sure deliberate and obtuse fragmentation benefits anyone.
If they started to fix some of the long-standing Nix implementation issues (namely, evaluation performance) that would be one thing.
But what they actually did is rage-fork nixpkgs and register new domains.

Sounds like White supremacy and Neo-Nazism. Why not say that about every other project that leftist enter and try to push their religious beliefs?
>Lix is a net win for everyone.
Most definitely not, fragmentation and religious proselytizing destroys projects.
>It would behoove us to stop taking pot shots at them
The truth shouldn't be hidden, regardless if they're "pot shots" or not.
>want nix to succeed, the presence of Lix is a net positive.
The Lix team are the ones that destroyed the nix community with their totalitarianism, leftist/woke ideology, and subversive actions. They are a net negative.
Nobody is keeping cis people from contributing to Lix, and even if they did, it'd be far from them trying to eliminate you. Isolationism isn't genocide, you fetid moppet.
