NixOS makes a great OS for personal/workstation use, too.
With NixOS, my system is always 100% clean, and never broken.
I can install packages in my home directory without root.
Best of all, whenever I want to write any code, I can use nix-shell to make the toolchain and dependencies temporarily available to a self-contained shell. No more cluttering my system with libfoobar-dev for a quick build, and forgetting why.
