synopsis: "Deprecate the online flake registries and vendor the default registry"
cls: 1127

category: Breaking Changes
---
The online flake registry [https://channels.nixos.org/flake-registry.json](https://channels.nixos.org/flake-registry.json) is not pinned in any way,
and the targets of the indirections can both update or change entirely at any
point. Furthermore, it is refetched on every use of a flake reference, even if
there is a local flake reference, and even if you are offline (which breaks).
For now, we deprecate the (any) online flake registry, and vendor a copy of the
current online flake registry. This makes it work offline, and ensures that
it won't change in the future.
