I'd be okay doing that to install packages but what I don't like is the N number of ways to install packages. Do I use nix-env? Do I use the new nix CLI? Do I make an entry in configuration.nix? Do I use this thing called flakes which is marked as experimental but almost everyone seems to be onboard with it?
There's no central and definitive source of documentation either. There's the official NixOS website, nix pills, nixos.wiki, blog posts from prominent developers, and other sources I don't remember.
Seems like a fragmented mess to me.
