Hi buddy ๐๐พ Same here mostly. I have given up on expecting anything out of life. I moved to a tribal village and am enjoying my remaining days there in nature.

Because modern web is bloatware. Too much javascript, CSS, ads and cookie popups. A phone's hardware and internet speeds are generally not as fast as a desktop. So, it takes much longer to render on a phone.
Also, a lot websites nowadays deliberately make their mobile web experience shitty (cough ** reddit cough) to force their users to install their app.
Zram is basically a compressed swap device located in your ram. You can check the usage by running zramctl.
I would recommend setting mem_limit to 10 GB or disk_size to 40GB and algorithm to lz4.
Zram usually has a very high compression ratio - around 4:1 for lz4 and 6:1 for zstd. You can set zram to 40-50 GB. It will still use less than 1/2 of your ram.
Zram has an option to write poorly compressible data to the disk instead of storing it in the ram. I would split the swap partition - 3 GB for zram writeback and rest for ordinary swap.
I was using flakes. I gave the reason why it's data intensive. If a core dependency like glibc is updated, it's hash will change and all packages that depend on it need to be rebuilt and rehashed. It'll download all packages again even though there's minimal change.
Interesting! Any reason for this choice instead of doing everything through nix?
That's quite convincing :) I've been meaning to try gentoo for many years actually. I'll install it soon and report back!
Haha yeah. Flatpak is pretty much like having 2 linux systems on your machine at once. And of course it can be worse sometimes.
Nix has a great potential as a replacement for flatpak actually as it is source based. You can guarantee what you are installing is based on which source code by compiling yourself.
Flatpak and the others are packaged by upstream. A developer can put malware in a package and upload it to flathub. That's why it needs permission management, sandboxing etc to minimize the risk.
Yep. I used the Xfce iso.
Okay. I have purged Google chrome from my devices long ago.
