I love this kind of stuff, but the barrier to entry just seems so huge.

"Not recommended

If you are attempting to leak state secrets (as was the case of Edward Snowden) or going up against a powerful state adversary, email may not be the most secure medium for communications. The Internet is generally not anonymous, and if you are breaking Swiss law, a law-abiding company such as ProtonMail can be legally compelled to log your IP address. A powerful state adversary will also be better positioned to launch one of the attacks described above against you, which may negate the privacy protection provided by ProtonMail. While we can offer more protection and security, we cannot guarantee your safety against a powerful adversary."

- Universal package manager (replaces pip, cabal, npm, etc.)

- Declarative OS-config which makes deploys on new devices and servers a breeze

- Scheme declaration language (I prefer it to Nix-lang)

- Bootstrapable from 512 byte binary [1]

- I can build a package from source or download the binary

- Easily modify package source, deps, or compiler [2]

Cons:

- No official nonfree software [3]

- Smaller package set than Nix

- No KDE yet and old version of Gnome (it takes a lot of work to update)

Neutral:

- No systemd

- Works with GNU Hurd

- No MacOS or BSD support (yet)
