minus-squaretrollercoaster@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·9 months agoIs it? Haven’t met any very forthcoming NixOS users yet, but time will tell.
minus-squarePommes_für_dein_Balg@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up0·9 months agoTheir recommendation usually starts with a disclaimer, and ends with “But it’s worth it, cause you can easily clone your machine”. For me, one look at https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/#ch-configuration and https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/options is enough to know it’s way too much hassle for me. I’ll stick with Slackware.

minus-squaredjsaskdja@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·9 months agoI’d be willing to argue that running anything OTHER than NixOS is insanity. Except maybe Debian. Everyone loves Debian.
