What even is the point of nixos stable channel if maintainers just backport untested garbage that breaks core desktop apps?

Absolute overengineered anti-KISS garbage with the most hostile human interface ever coded

The real surprise is acting like this doesn't happen on other distros

I've been on Arch for the past 8 years. The only thing that ever broke (if you can even call it that) was a syntax change when moving from freerdp2 to freerdp3. Having something as basic as a browser become completely unusable? Never happened once. And Arch is a rolling release.
I honestly can't imagine how some distro like debian can call itself "stable" while breaking firefox.

Just a toy distro where you can "configure everything,". Yeah, except Home Manager only covers like 2% of packages, and for the rest you have to hack it together with regular xdg just by dumping dotfiles.

Meanwhile! while fixing a bug with firefox, I immediately find another bug in firefox-esr: ".profile option" is simply ignored when programs.firefox.package.pkgs.firefox-esr.

Absolute garbage troon shit. I'm done with it.
