      <description>&lt;p&gt;&#xA;I have been using NixOS for the last 2 years now.&#xA;I got introduced to it by friends, who had changed their entire workflow to accommodate it.&#xA;I was a bit skeptical at the beginning, tried installing the package manager to my arch install at the time, but didn&amp;#39;t fully understand how I was supposed to use it in conjunction with how I was my computer at the time.&#xA;However, in the summer of 2023, I decided to take the plunge, and go the full way, with a new install.&#xA;Having run this type of setup for two years now, I have to admit it.&#xA;NixOS makes certain aspects of using my computer easier.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&#xA;Hey,&#xA;I did a stoop and switch to lightmode a few days ago.&#xA;SO far, it feels comfy in someways.&#xA;I chose &lt;a href=&#34;https://github.com/catppuccin/catppuccin&#34;&gt;catppuccin latte&lt;/a&gt; as the theme.&#xA;But what I don&amp;#39;t fully get is how application such as discord are so very bad in lightmode.&#xA;Like, I am using a theme, &lt;a href=&#34;https://github.com/catppuccin/discord&#34;&gt;catppuccin discord&lt;/a&gt;, to ensure that it looks like the rest of my laptop but it looks very off when it comes to notifications.&#xA;Seeing that a discord has a new message, is almost hidden.&#xA;This is also true for default theme, so it left me wondering if people think about light themes?&#xA;I sure haven&amp;#39;t, since I primarily have used darkmode everywhere I can for the last years.&#xA;Spotify has not implemented this addition for ~10 years now, as seen in &lt;a href=&#34;https://community.spotify.com/t5/Live-Ideas/All-Platforms-Light-Mode-option/idi-p/730341&#34;&gt;this request&lt;/a&gt;.&#xA;It has 6k votes and is one of the ones with the most votes on the entire website.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
