Thanks! Really helpful comment. Especially this bit:
> People who have really thrived with Nix are often at the intersection of 'FP people' and 'extremely stubborn Linux people'
As an extremely stubborn Linux person, that makes total sense to me. But I also almost never recommend Linux to average folks, because I'm keenly aware how far along certain bell curves I am. I would love it if more advocates reflected on whether the personal characteristic that makes a technology great for them is one that makes it bad for others.
Thanks also for the pointers to projects inspired by Nix. I'll check them out.
