Hi ^_^
I usually keep to the latest java version, because I like using the new features!
But I did some light contextual testing (user story stuff) and found that a lot of pre-built server jars are not necessarily on the latest java.
This usually causes classpath issues which I think could be a block for why people haven't started using the plugin (as it appears to not work).
Is there a sweet spot or convention I should stick to?
Like, for example
- to stick 5 major releases behind, or
- stick to the next most backwards compatible release
Also, how do you check yourself in this lonely period; before you have actual server owners/testers providing these reports/feedback?
as someone who used NixOS on desktop for two years, using AerynOS shows NixOS is not really good for that use case yet (assuming you're using what nixpkgs provides and not doing a major amount of overrides and patches and using alternative repositories).
It's staggering how much more polished AerynOS is to NixOS on desktop. So my current take, AerynOS is great for an intermediate users desktop, NixOS is a good option for server.
