Packages that cannot be accepted upstream: themes, icons, fonts, packages that are “too new” (think Zig 0.16 for example), anything that packages binary blobs, anything that maintainers refuse to accept like Brave browser, or even your own tools.

Just off the top of my head. The reason I started that repo in the first place was to get a Noctalia package that I can install across multiple machines.

Didn’t have any issues installing the Nvidia driver and using Steam from flatpak.

Been using Void for a while now, at home and at work, about 4 installs in total.

I have my own packages repo which follows the official void-packages closely where I keep my custom templates, they get built by CI and signed, so on my void machines I simply add my repo to xbps config and get all my junk. Here’s the repo: https://code.hosaka.cc/hosaka/vast-packages

In addition, I rsync the official repo to mirror it on my server that syncs every few hours and my custom packages are build against that (see the CI workflow in the repo). This also has a benefit of being able to update the packages on my machines from my own mirror at much faster speeds.

It took me a while to get things setup this way, but was worth it in the end.

Does it support account syncing? I’m using vanilla Firefox+user.js now with a self-hosted sync server.

In reality meta quest games use their Platform SDK (for things like user entitlement check, match making, leaderboards, DLC) I’m not sure it’ll be an easy port for Quest games because you’ll be missing Meta’s services that run on the quest itself.

Currently just alpine with docker compose, but I initially wanted to use podman, this was before quadlets were a thing and I found it very cumbersome to configure the networking between containers, also recall having to use kustomize as an extra step, so I gave up and went with compose.

Now there are quadlets with podman, which seem to do everything I need but require systemd. I’d be happy to switch from openrc to systemd just for the sake of using podman.

I’ll finally be able to switch from docker compose to podman with quadlets on my server running alpine
