Yes, I'm a Nix-coiner too.
No turning back once you try.
Once in a while I'll forget which distro I'm using. I truly believe I am the dumbest, most computer illiterate guy using NixOS. They should hire me for a promo- "If this guy can use it... "
Don't worry, I also don't care which distro I use, until it breaks.
When things looks bad I just go like: "Oh, it doesn't boot anymore. Let's switch generation" and everything is fixed.
That's the best part for me. Screwing up, then switching generations.
Also when you work on a project the only dependency is nix even without NixOS, since using NixOS I've never experienced the beauty to work on a freshly cloned project without having something broken in the setup.
Such bliss.... 🌷
I need to learn that and ditch Docker
You can merge them together, nix within docker gives you a cross platform system with magically pinned dependency from NixOS.
But pure Nix is another story, with a single nix-shell I have everything working everywhere nix run, and with the OS you can set-up deployments with no effort from a configuration file.
Talk about real code-as-infrastructure. 😉
I'm on NixOS, I can revert anytime. 😎
