Removed channel specification from link

In addition by default the firewall is on and needs to be configure to work. Normally the package spec does this for you.

You have a few options, systemctl stop firewall.service temporarily, Or add some ports to your nixOS config and run nixos-rebuild. With ipv6, not having a firewall on can be specially dangerous. Having a well known port auto configuring it at the package level would be preferrable. ChatGPT recommended 45555 as the well known port.

I always have to toggle the visibility to get it to work on startup... would be nice if this was done by default, specially as no systemd demons are installed. Also, the close button doesn't work.

  # Open ports in the firewall.
  networking.firewall.allowedTCPPorts = [ 
    45555 # QuickShare
  ];
  networking.firewall.enable = true;

$ nano "$HOME/.local/share/dev.mandre.rquickshare/.settings.json"

{
  "realclose": false,
  "port": 45555,
  "autostart": true,
  "startminimized": false,
  "visibility": 0
}
