Be economical regarding disk space - don't install system software we don't need.

  • Import the "minimal" NixOS profile to get rid of X and docs (and audio?)
  • Have no documentation around? (like here if the minimal profile isn't including this by now)
  • Have fewer old kernels around (like here)
  • Keep fewer logs
  • ... What else?

The things in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/nixos-24.11/nixos/modules/profiles/minimal.nix should disable enough documentation (only not the "dev" documentation compared to https://whetstone.private.storage/privatestorage/PrivateStorageio/-/merge_requests/522/diffs), I checked that box without configuring it, it's negligible.
