> Even as someone who does think Flakes are better than the prior solutions, I'm increasingly of the opinion that Flakes would be better moved to a layer outside the core Nix project - advancing them within core Nix at this stage seems pretty impossible with many within the project opposed to their existence. I think if Flakes were an alternative project at the same level as something like Niv, a lot of the holy warring would get out of the way. I posted some information and metrics about that on Discourse: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/announcing-determinate-nix/54709/72?u=grahamc https://discourse.nixos.org/t/announcing-determinate-nix/547...
