This post is dead-on. I've been trying nix in different forms for years, and it's been incredibly painful. The way the folks who use it normally talk about it is so different from real-life use by non-experts it feels like gaslighting. I only felt vindicated when reading https://ianthehenry.com/posts/how-to-learn-nix/ https://ianthehenry.com/posts/how-to-learn-nix/ -- it's not me it's them. Maybe one day it'll get good enough to be usable. Right now it's a long, long fight to get productive in any non-trivial (e.g., explicitly supported and documented) configuration.
