  • I really enjoy running nixos because there is very little uncertainty of what's installed. I don't run any games so I can't speak to that, but the centralized configuration makes fixing problems relatively easy. The downside is a steep learning curve to writing your own derivations, the community is split between "flakes" and normal nix derivations, and sometimes you just have to accept that it doesn't work on nixos without putting in the work to write the derivations yourself. (Don't get me wrong, people have made derivations easy to build, but it's an unexpected side quest when you just want to try some new software)

  • I just upgraded to openwrt on a bananapi router kit. It makes me happy every time I ssh to one of my devices by hostname instead of IP. Also set up DNS ad blocking and it's a game changer.

  • The efi partition can generally be mounted anywhere, distros may expect it in a specific location.

    The efi partition must be fat formatted.

    I'm not sure if partition order matters, I think the main thing is setting the boot flag for the efi partition in the partition table.

  • Some tlds require the owner to meet some legal requirements, like affiliation with a specific country. I've registered .us domains before without requests for ID but I did pay with a US based card.
