I switched all of my machines to NixOS for a few months. It was a wonderful experience being able to keep all my environments in sync. Nix the language is one reason I reverted to Ubuntu a few weeks ago. It just didn't mesh well with me....so when the inevitable problem occurred, it was a pain to deal with. Other pain points: - the NixOS learning curve is steep. There are two many tools with too many obscure options with sometimes overlapping features. - small group of maintainers with no real documented security process...just an assurance that they path as quickly as possible - many packages are old if they're not mainstream I would love to see the concept of Nix reimplemented in a non-niche language without the fsf zealotry... I'd switch my company to something like this in a heartbeat. I think there's a real business opportunity for someone willing to take that on.
