The answer was in my post. Nix isn't for everyone, and that's OK.
- myaccountonhn 1y agoI've returned and my new approach was to learn: 1. The repl for exploration 2. The language (read nix.dev) 3. Read the nixos manual And with that it started to make sense.
- exe34 1y agoI've actually gone the other way - not everything is meant to be run. If it's not in the nix repos, I'll try the fhs, and if that doesn't work - well I probably don't care enough to beg it to run. For me the fact that my base installation can never break is not negotiable. I definitely didn't learn much of nix(os|pkgs). I never bothered learning about flakes. I just have a configuration.nix and a user config.nix, and a "fhs" default.nix and that's it.
