- After gaining some experience, I switched my main computer to NixOS in May of this year (2023). I've edited my NixOS For Beginners posts, published them on my blog, and flipped the Xinux route from Arch Linux to NixOS. At first, I received negative feedback from many audiences because NixOS forced unconventional thinking, but then it started to change for the better.

- Are you sure the packages are compiled with the
-O3GCC option? That is an aggressive compiler flag which should not be applied broadly across programs, since it needs to be benchmarked first. It is compiled for thex86_64_v3platform;[1] I think you may have just made an incorrect assumption beyond that. Thanks, CodingKoopa (talk) 04:02, 15 November 2022 (UTC)- Yes, -O3 is generally the standard. Along with x86-64-v3, x86-64-v4, and zenv4 specific march repositories.

- I've had a look and the homepage does not resolve for me. The ISOs on SF date a few days before above comment. Based on that I would not consider the distro active as of today. --Indigo (talk) 20:30, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

UBOS
It's actually UBOS Linux, not just UBOS because there are other components in the overall UBOS project as well. Jernst (talk) 02:26, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
ArchStrike
The last published ISO was in 2022, but their pacman repository still has updates (from a few months ago.) Latter was removed from Unofficial user repositories, as aimed at a different distribution. The ArchStrike community channels (reddit) also seems abandoned. Thoughts on moving it to inactive? Alad (talk) 12:20, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
