Every day NMS has to update. Is this because I run it on Linux or is it just how NMS is? Today it was a 4,6 GB update

    I’ve been on Linux full time for over 3 years - the only time I deal with dependencies is during my twice-monthly manual updates and new app installs, and even then I’ve only run into conflicts that required me to do more than hit y/n a couple of times, and they were easy fixes. My updates every 2 weeks take on average less than 5 mins total, most of it stuff downloading and installing while I continue to do other stuff.

    If you’re having a shit time with dependencies frequently, you’re probably doing something wrong. Switch to nixos if it’s that much of a problem, no more dependency issues.
