I’m currently running Arch and it’s great, but I’m noticing I’m not staying on the ball in regards to updates. I’ve been reading a bit about Nix and NixOS and thinking of trying it as my daily driver. I’ve got a Lenovo x1 xtreme laptop, I don’t do much gaming (except OSRS), use firefox, jetbrains stuff, bitwarden, remmina, obsidian, and docker.
Is anyone running NixOS as their daily? How are you liking it and are there any pitfalls / stuff you wish you knew before?
I tried Nixos but it was overkill for my desktop usage. The learning time is a cost but also, on my old laptop, there is a noticeable performance loss comparing to arch. The benefits is not enough for my usecase. I prefer dealing with arch shitty updates.
