WIP: mootube: init at 2022-08-28

note that this doesn't cross compile, because of stupid fucking rust build.rs scripts

+## What's Here
+
+this is the top-level repo from which i configure/deploy all my NixOS machines:
+- desktop
+- laptop
+- server
+- mobile phone (Pinephone)
+
+everything outside of <./hosts/> and <./secrets/> is intended for export, to be importable for use by 3rd parties.
+the only hard dependency for my exported pkgs/modules should be [nixpkgs][nixpkgs].
+building <./hosts/> will require [sops][sops].
+
+you might specifically be interested in these files (elaborated further in #key-points-of-interest):
+- [`sxmo-utils`](./pkgs/additional/sxmo-utils/default.nix)
+  - [example SXMO deployment](./hosts/modules/gui/sxmo/default.nix)
+- [my implementation of impermanence](./modules/persist/default.nix)
+- my way of deploying dotfiles/configuring programs per-user:
+  - <./modules/fs/default.nix>
+  - <./modules/programs.nix>
+  - <./modules/users.nix>
+
+[nixpkgs]: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs
+[sops]: https://github.com/Mic92/sops-nix
+[uninsane-org]: https://uninsane.org
+
+## Using This Repo In Your Own Config
+
+this should be a pretty "standard" flake. just reference it, and import either
+- `nixosModules.sane` (for the modules)
+- `overlays.pkgs` (for the packages)
+
+or follow the instructions [here][NUR] to use it via the Nix User Repositories.
+
+[NUR]: https://nur.nix-community.org/
+
+## Layout
+- `doc/`
+    - instructions for tasks i find myself doing semi-occasionally in this repo.
+- `hosts/`
+    - the bulk of config which isn't factored with external use in mind.
+    - that is, if you were to add this repo to a flake.nix for your own use,
+      you won't likely be depending on anything in this directory.
+- `integrations/`
+    - code intended for consumption by external tools (e.g. the Nix User Repos)
+- `modules/`
+    - config which is gated behind `enable` flags, in similar style to nixpkgs'
+      `nixos/` directory.
+    - if you depend on this repo, it's most likely for something in this directory.
+- `nixpatches/`
+    - literally, diffs i apply atop upstream nixpkgs before performing further eval.
+- `overlays/`
+    - exposed via the `overlays` output in `flake.nix`.
+    - predominantly a list of `callPackage` directives.
+- `pkgs/`
+    - derivations for things not yet packaged in nixpkgs.
+    - derivations for things from nixpkgs which i need to `override` for some reason.
+    - inline code for wholly custom packages (e.g. `pkgs/additional/sane-scripts/` for CLI tools
+      that are highly specific to my setup).
+- `scripts/`
+    - scripts which aren't reachable on a deployed system, but may aid manual deployments
+- `secrets/`
+    - encrypted keys, API tokens, anything which one or more of my machines needs
+      read access to but shouldn't be world-readable.
+    - not much to see here
+- `templates/`
+    - exposed via the `templates` output in `flake.nix`.
+    - used to instantiate short-lived environments.
+    - used to auto-fill the boiler-plate portions of new packages.
+
+
+## Key Points of Interest
+
+i.e. you might find value in using these in your own config:
+
+- `modules/fs/`
+    - use this to statically define leafs and nodes anywhere in the filesystem,
+      not just inside `/nix/store`.
+    - e.g. specify that `/var/www` should be:
+        - owned by a specific user/group
+        - set to a specific mode
+        - symlinked to some other path
+        - populated with some statically-defined data
+        - populated according to some script
+        - created as a dependency of some service (e.g. `nginx`)
+    - values defined here are applied neither at evaluation time _nor_ at activation time.
+        - rather, they become systemd services.
+        - systemd manages dependencies
+        - e.g. link `/var/www -> /mnt/my-drive/www` only _after_ `/mnt/my-drive/www` appears)
+    - this is akin to using [Home Manager's][home-manager] file API -- the part which lets you
+      statically define `~/.config` files -- just with a different philosophy.
+- `modules/persist/`
+    - my alternative to the Impermanence module.
+    - this builds atop `modules/fs/` to achieve things stock impermanence can't:
+        - persist things to encrypted storage which is unlocked at login time (pam_mount).
+        - "persist" cache directories -- to free up RAM -- but auto-wipe them on mount
+          and encrypt them to ephemeral keys so they're unreadable post shutdown/unmount.
+- `modules/programs.nix`
+    - like nixpkgs' `programs` options, but allows both system-wide or per-user deployment.
+    - allows `fs` and `persist` config values to be gated behind program deployment:
+        - e.g. `/home/<user>/.mozilla/firefox` is persisted only for users who
+          `sane.programs.firefox.enableFor.user."<user>" = true;`
+- `modules/users.nix`
+    - convenience layer atop the above modules so that you can just write
+      `fs.".config/git"` instead of `fs."/home/colin/.config/git"`
+
+some things in here could easily find broader use. if you would find benefit in
+them being factored out of my config, message me and we could work to make that happen.

+## BUGS
+- ringer (i.e. dino incoming call) doesn't prevent moby from sleeping
+- Fractal opens links with non-preferred web browser
+- `nix` operations from lappy hang when `desko` is unreachable
+  - could at least direct the cache to `http://desko-hn:5001`
+- waybar isn't visible on moby until after `swaymsg reload`
+
+## REFACTORING:
+
+- fold hosts/common/home/ssh.nix -> hosts/common/users/colin.nix
+
+### sops/secrets
+- attach secrets to the thing they're used by (sane.programs)
+- rework secrets to leverage `sane.fs`
+- remove sops activation script as it's covered by my systemd sane.fs impl
+
+### roles
+- allow any host to take the role of `uninsane.org`
+  - will make it easier to test new services?
+
+### upstreaming
+- split out a sxmo module usable by NUR consumers
+- bump nodejs version in lemmy-ui
+- add updateScripts to all my packages in nixpkgs
+- fix lightdm-mobile-greeter for newer libhandy
+- port zecwallet-lite to a from-source build
+- REVIEW/integrate jellyfin dataDir config: <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/233617>
+
+#### upstreaming to non-nixpkgs repos
+- gtk: build schemas even on cross compilation: <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/247844>
+- sxmo: add new app entries
+
+
+## IMPROVEMENTS:
+### security/resilience
+- validate duplicity backups!
+- encrypt more ~ dirs (~/archives, ~/records, ..?)
+  - best to do this after i know for sure i have good backups
+- have `sane.programs` be wrapped such that they run in a cgroup?
+  - at least, only give them access to the portion of the fs they *need*.
+  - Android takes approach of giving each app its own user: could hack that in here.
+  - **systemd-run** takes a command and runs it in a temporary scope (cgroup)
+    - presumably uses the same options as systemd services
+    - see e.g. <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/113903#issuecomment-857296349>
+  - flatpak does this, somehow
+  - apparmor?  SElinux?  (desktop) "portals"?
+  - see Spectrum OS; Alyssa Ross; etc
+  - bubblewrap-based sandboxing: <https://github.com/nixpak/nixpak>
+- canaries for important services
+  - e.g. daily email checks; daily backup checks
+  - integrate `nix check` into Gitea actions?
+
+### faster/better deployments
+- remove audacity's dependency on webkitgtk (via wxwidgets)
+
+### user experience
+- install apps:
+  - display QR codes for WiFi endpoints: <https://linuxphoneapps.org/apps/noappid.wisperwind.wifi2qr/>
+  - shopping list (not in nixpkgs): <https://linuxphoneapps.org/apps/ro.hume.cosmin.shoppinglist/>
+  - offline Wikipedia (or, add to `wike`)
+  - offline docs viewer (gtk): <https://github.com/workbenchdev/Biblioteca>
+  - some type of games manager/launcher
+    - Gnome Highscore (retro games)?: <https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/highscore>
+  - better maps for mobile (Osmin (QtQuick)? Pure Maps (Qt/Kirigami)? Gnome Maps is improved in 45)
+  - note-taking app: <https://linuxphoneapps.org/categories/note-taking/>
+  - OSK overlay specifically for mobile gaming
+    - i.e. mock joysticks, for use with SuperTux and SuperTuxKart
+- install mobile-friendly games:
+  - Shattered Pixel Dungeon (nixpkgs `shattered-pixel-dungeon`; doesn't cross-compile b/c openjdk/libIDL) <https://github.com/ebolalex/shattered-pixel-dungeon>
+  - UnCiv (Civ V clone; nixpkgs `unciv`; doesn't cross-compile):  <https://github.com/yairm210/UnCiv>
+  - Simon Tatham's Puzzle Collection (not in nixpkgs) <https://git.tartarus.org/?p=simon/puzzles.git>
+  - Shootin Stars  (Godot; not in nixpkgs) <https://gitlab.com/greenbeast/shootin-stars>
+
+#### moby
+- fix cpuidle (gets better power consumption): <https://xnux.eu/log/077.html>
+- SwayNC:
+  - don't show MPRIS if no players detected
+    - this is a problem of playerctld, i guess
+    - also, the album icon when "Not playing" doesn't follow the size we give in the config
+      - that means mpris always takes up excessive space on moby
+  - add option to change audio output
+  - fix colors (red alert) to match overall theme
+- moby: tune GPS
+  - run only geoclue, and not gpsd, to save power?
+  - tune QGPS setting in eg25-control, for less jitter?
+  - direct mepo to prefer gpsd, with fallback to geoclue, for better accuracy?
+  - configure geoclue to do some smoothing?
+  - manually do smoothing, as some layer between mepo and geoclue/gpsd?
+- moby: show battery state on ssh login
+- moby: improve gPodder launch time
+- sxmo: port to swaybar like i use on desktop
+  - users in #sxmo claim it's way better perf
+- sxmo: fix youtube scripts (package youtube-cli)
+- moby: theme GTK apps (i.e. non-adwaita styles)
+  - combine multiple icon themes to get one which has the full icon set?
+  - get adwaita-icon-theme to ship everything even when cross-compiled?
+  - especially, make the menubar collapsible
+  - try Gradience tool specifically for theming adwaita? <https://linuxphoneapps.org/apps/com.github.gradienceteam.gradience/>
+- phog: remove the gnome-shell runtime dependency to save hella closure size
+
+#### non-moby
+- RSS: integrate a paywall bypass
+  - e.g. self-hosted [ladder](https://github.com/everywall/ladder) (like 12ft.io)
+- neovim: set up language server (lsp; rnix-lsp; nvim-lspconfig)
+- Helix: make copy-to-system clipboard be the default
+- firefox/librewolf: persist history
+  - just not cookies or tabs
+- package Nix/NixOS docs for Zeal
+  - install [doc-browser](https://github.com/qwfy/doc-browser)
+  - this supports both dash (zeal) *and* the datasets from <https://devdocs.io> (which includes nix!)
+  - install [devhelp](https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Devhelp)  (gnome)
+- have xdg-open parse `<repo:...> URIs (or adjust them so that it _can_ parse)
+- sane-bt-search: show details like 5.1 vs stereo, h264 vs h265
+  - maybe just color these "keywords" in all search results?
+- uninsane.org: make URLs relative to allow local use (and as offline homepage)
+- email: fix so that local mail doesn't go to junk
+  - git sendmail flow adds the DKIM signatures, but gets delivered locally w/o having the sig checked, so goes into Junk
+  - could change junk filter from "no DKIM success" to explicit "DKIM failed"
+
+### perf
+- add `pkgs.impure-cached.<foo>` package set to build things with ccache enabled
+  - every package here can be auto-generated, and marked with some env var so that it doesn't pollute the pure package set
+  - would be super handy for package prototyping!
+- get moby to build without binfmt emulation (i.e. make all emulation explicit)
+  - then i can distribute builds across servo + desko, and also allow servo to pull packages from desko w/o worrying about purity
+
+
+## NEW FEATURES:
+- migrate MAME cabinet to nix
+  - boot it from PXE from servo?
+- deploy to new server, and use it as a remote builder
+- enable IPv6
+- package lemonade lemmy app: <https://linuxphoneapps.org/apps/ml.mdwalters.lemonade/>

+# commonly used to establish realtime calls with prosody, or possibly matrix/synapse

+# - <https://github.com/coturn/coturn/>
+# - `man turnserver`
+# - config docs: <https://github.com/coturn/coturn/blob/master/examples/etc/turnserver.conf>
+#
+# N.B. during operation it's NORMAL to see "error 401".
+# during session creation:
+# - client sends Allocate request
+# - server replies error 401, providing a realm and nonce
+# - client uses realm + nonce + shared secret to construct an auth key & call Allocate again
+# - server replies Allocate Success Response
+# - source: <https://stackoverflow.com/a/66643135>
+#
+# N.B. this safest implementation routes all traffic THROUGH A VPN
+# - that adds a lot of latency, but in practice turns out to be inconsequential.
+#   i guess ICE allows clients to prefer the other party's lower-latency server, in practice?
+# - still, this is the "safe" implementation because STUN works with IP addresses instead of domain names:
+#   1. client A queries the STUN server to determine its own IP address/port.
+#   2. client A tells client B which IP address/port client A is visible on.
+#   3. client B contacts that IP address/port
+#   this only works so long as the IP address/port which STUN server sees client A on is publicly routable.
+#   that is NOT the case when the STUN server and client A are on the same LAN
+#   even if client A contacts the STUN server via its WAN address with port reflection enabled.
+#   hence, there's no obvious way to put the STUN server on the same LAN as either client and expect the rest to work.

+# my rough understanding of the pieces:
+# - postfix handles SMTP protocol with the rest of the world.
+# - dovecot implements IMAP protocol.
+#   - client auth (i.e. validate that user@uninsane.org is who they claim)
+#   - "folders" (INBOX, JUNK) are internal to dovecot?
+#     or where do folders live, on-disk?
+#
+# - non-local clients (i.e. me) interact with BOTH postfix and dovecot, but primarily dovecot:
+#   - mail reading is done via IMAP (so, dovecot)
+#   - mail sending is done via SMTP/submission port (so, postfix)
+#     - but postfix delegates authorization of that outgoing mail to dovecot, on the server side
+#
+# - local clients (i.e. sendmail) interact only with postfix
+#
+# debugging: general connectivity issues
+# - test that inbound port 25 is unblocked:
+#   - `curl https://canyouseeme.org/ --data 'port=25&IP=185.157.162.178' | grep 'see your service'`
+#     - and retry with port 465, 587
+#     - i think this API requires the queried IP match the source IP
+#   - if necessary, `systemctl stop postfix` and `sudo nc -l 185.157.162.178 25`, then try https://canyouseeme.org
