    Oh lol. You’re not on unstable?

    That explains why you’ve not had any issues lol.

    Changing channels every six months is a dice roll - sometimes fine, other times shit breaks.

    Depends how complex your system is I suppose, but the major releases are always the most work if youre pinning versions.

      Uh oh. I thought it’s a common practice to use stable by default and unstable where needed for stability. Is this less common than I thought?

        It’s mostly the difference between:

        “Wanting to resolve all your discrepancies at once”

        Or,

        “Gradually, as they roll out”

        Stable is less work for sure, but it just means having to do everything at once.

        You just need to remember to update your channel in your flake every six months and then set your options as they rotate.
