You may need to do the same for 16.09.

I picked it directly. There are still a few references of your name on both branches.

I'll miss you, thank you for all your hard work over the past few years.

Do you have any suggestions on people you've noticed taking care of these packages / the gnome ecosystem that I could ping in the future?

That's too bad. To avoid spam, perhaps you'd want to add an entry to the mentionbot blacklist as well?

sorry, I don't

I will continue to read news from the community. Keep the good work going!

Yes, I think that was the problem; Damien was lately doing most of all the gnome-specific work.

not most of it, but still a bit too much compared to the time I have. And I changed job in September which took me some time also.

I'm back by the way :-).

So you want to get listed on some meta.maintainers again? I think especially for packages without any maintainers it would be nice...

I meant nothing specific. There's generally low meta.maintainers coverage, and this (old) diff also showed you were the only one in most cases.

I'm back by the way :-).

why? :-) Don't get me wrong, I'm excited, but what triggered your return?

I never wanted to leave. I joined a new company and had a hard time installing everything I needed in NixOS. I was spending a lot of time improving NixOS instead of learning my new job. Nowadays, I'm more one of the experts than one of the juniors in the company, we have much less things to install, and NixOS got much better!

I might have to go back to Fedora again because it seems NixOS is sucking all my battery power and is making my CPU really hot really fast on my new laptop. In Fedora I will see if I can replicate the problem. I hope to get back to NixOS really soon.

@DamienCassou oh noes! Do you have services.tlp.enable set? You may also check this https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware/pull/101/files#diff-a48130f1addab5c8712fc73f37aa7f2fR52-R79, as it has some hacks to reduce power drain.

There is also another hack for Intel CPUs, which reduces frequency hardway, which reduces battery usage - https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware/pull/101/files#diff-b3acb2a24fc098d15130f0261a43ed78R38-R50

@danbst I do have tlp running. I'm trying your suggestions. It would be great if I could stick with NixOS. Currently, I'm migrating everything I can to home-manager to keep a Nix feeling if I have to go back to Fedora. Is it ok for me to contact you if I have questions about this problem? This thread is not appropriate though. Can I use discourse instead?

yes 👍
