<insert favorite distro> + Nix has been working ok for me. I run a mix of Ubuntu and Arch and use Nix on Ubuntu to bridge the gap. Fedora Silverblue looks interesting as well, though it's not clear to me whether the update frequency is higher than normal Fedora.
Edit: I also like Alpine
- tapoxi 4y agoSilverblue tracks Fedora releases, the only difference is that you're using ostree deployments which keeps "bit rot" at bay. For the unaware, ostree treats your root filesystem somewhat like a git repo, and you add/remove packages with rpm-ostree or by using containers.
- DEDLINE 4y agoJust checked out Nix. I can definitely see myself using nix-shell. Do you actually use nix-build? If so, do you like it more than working with the familiar 3P tooling (i.e. docker)?
