I’m interested in the topic in general, but not in explaining that declarative systems don’t solve the problem of continuously changing software (e.g., for security updates, changing landscape), and the need to update configs that goes along with it. Hope that helps!
It helps the problem by tagging the state of all your random dot files to the same source set. Any that config changes very rarely anyway. Unless you are using super bleeding edge software. Sure you have to change things still but atleast you have a well track set of what you’ve changed how you’ve changed it and what versions it’s all set to. Non-declarative systems mean you still have to do all the updating but now it’s all a much of untracked manual work unless you’re real good at documentation. Hope that helps!
“Not interested in discussion” posts opinion on public form. Wut.
