I suspect there is some self-selection happening with the “exodus”. Those who bother to take the extra steps to join the fediverse probably have some feeling of “we’re in this together”. We have a uniting cause. I personally have been lurking on Reddit for the last seven years or so, and yet here I am on Lemmy replying to your comment a few hours after joining.

While the recipes in there are not the fanciest, none other of my cookbooks has gotten as much use as “Easy Vegan Comfort Meals” by Derek Simnett. A lot of the recipes your can actually find on his YouTube channel (https://YouTube.com/@SimnettNutrition).
However, I have to say that none of the desserts look that appealing, so I’ve never made any. Maybe I just need to try some, though.
I started with Linux like many, I guess, by distro hopping. My first experience was with Knoppix in the late 2000s (because I didn’t know what a live CD was), then I tried OpenSuse, went on to Fedora (is SELinux still such a pain in the ass as it was back then?) and then to Kubuntu.
If I remember correctly I switched to Arch some time after Plasma 4 came out. About 11 years ago. It was, back then, one of the only distributions that shipped the newest stock KDE that “just worked”. Actually that might be wrong, but I didn’t know what I was doing with Linux anyways and somehow I liked Arch enough to stay. I used it at home, for work (software development) and at college. And it serves me well in all those areas (minus some minor hiccups).
It’s still fulfilling my needs but lately I’ve been flirting with NixOS. I might change my daily driver once I get a new laptop (still rocking a Thinkpad T430 from 2012 but it’s starting to show its age).
Love how simple the recipe is. That’s actually something I might try because I don’t need to buy two dozen exotic ingredients I’ll never use ever again. Thanks for sharing!
One question though: I’ve never had pulled pork. Is it normal to eat it in an open sandwich? Won’t the filling just fall out? Wouldn’t a some kind of pocket or flat bread work better?
I’ve never used it myself but I’ve heard good things about Pinta: https://www.pinta-project.com/
Edit: Just saw that this question was posted 2 years ago 😅
It is sad but did you really expect anything else?
Since many users migrated from Reddit, you’ll mostly get the same attitude that was prevalent there. And let’s not forget that veganism is still a very niche worldview. Most people look at meat as food and not as someone else’s body
From what I’ve heard from NixOS users, your intuition seems right. When you learn NixOS, you learn NixOS rather than Linux. The question is, what your goals are. If you want to get a job as a Linux sysadmin, you’d probably be better off using a more common distro. But if you just want to use Linux privately, dive into whatever seems most exciting to you or fulfills your needs the best.
