I agree. I think that’s why nix-os is getting so popular these days.
I love the idea of declarative system builds even beyond just reproducability. The idea that you can essentially make your own distro without much difficulty is really cool.
Plus all the benefits of roll backs, light backups, etc.
Plus if you can dig deep enough you can craft a system that never breaks by pinning certain versions.
One of these days I want to check it out. As well as LFS. Oh but for the want of time.
About NixOS specifically, I actually made a post on [email protected] and overall the feedback seemed to be that Nix is a mixed bag, and that unless you want to duplicate your system a bunch of times, it’s probably smarter to stick to Arch, and a few people said I should use immutable Fedora for some reason despite that not being the question.
