Hi everyone!
I saw that NixOS is getting popularity recently. I really have no idea why and how this OS works. Can you guys help me understanding all of this ?
Thanks !

Having the option to have multiple versions of a dependency without needing to have duplicates of the same version alá flatpak seems like it should’ve been a no-brainer on any linux distro.
With that said I’m very comfortable with my current system, so definitely not until I get majorly fucked by my life-choices
Definitely sounds like a competent player in comparison to most distros though.
And I feel like the terminal isn’t as big a barrier as everyone makes it out to be (part of why I say that is because I think the entire concept of “beginner friendly distros” only makes the terminal seem more impenetrable through that wording)
All-in-one config is definitely something I would’ve hoped Arch had as well, and as a bonus I would love a system that kept all things related to the user in /home (I’m not completely sure Nix does but I may as well throw that in) (homed does not do that as it still has entities outside of /home that you better back up, in fact you’ll risk being locked out of your user if you don’t)
