2025-08-06README.md: use SVG for nixos-white, as done with nixosyunfachi
Currently, `nixos-white.png` is used, while the colored variant has already been switched to SVG. This commit updates the white logo to use the SVG version for consistency.

2025-05-23README.md: fix NixOS logoRaphael Borun Das Gupta
(default and light theme) https://nixos.org/logo/nixos-hires.png gives a "Not found" error and https://nixos.org itself uses an (inline) SVG, so let's go for the default logo SVG from nixos-artwork.
2025-04-17README: sync package count with https://search.nixos.org/packagesYohann Boniface

2025-02-04README: Updated dead link for nix channel manual (#379247)Manse
* README: Updated dead link for nix channel The old link from the manual lead to a dead page. The new link leads to the nix-channel command on the manual. However it would also be reasonable for it to lead to the wiki[1] entry on nix channels, or on the channels section of the FAQ[2], however the ladder option already leads to the nix-channel command manual entry "for more information". [1]: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Nix_channels [2]: https://nix.dev/concepts/faq#channel-branches * README: link to stable branch of the manual instead of a specific version

2024-02-26README: use relative links to CONTRIBUTING.mdJason Yundt
There’s two different ways of viewing rendered versions of the Markdown files in this repo. You can either 1. view them on GitHub or 2. clone the repo and open them using a program like Okular [1]. Before this change, option 2 was a little bit inconvenient. When you clicked on either of the links to CONTRIBUTING.md, it would take you to GitHub instead of opening up the Markdown file locally.

2021-05-23README: point to MatrixGraham Christensen
Users are seeing the information to Freenode, which is probably the least correct option now. RFC94 isn't accepted yet, and we can update this README as soon as immediately if something changes.

They don't incur a fee and should thus be preferred.

We updated the top of the readme to reference 60,000, but we forgot to update this reference. This changes it so it won't become invalid for a bit.
