Is anyone using NixOS as their daily driver?
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?
You're viewing a single thread.
I had a colleague who ran NixOS on his work laptop and loved it. He even held a presentation to the rest of the engineering dept about it. Then IT contacted him and said company policy only allowed running Ubuntu and he had to reinstall.
He resigned shortly after.
Cuz fuck Ubuntu and fuck corporate policies about what OS I need to use.
Genuinely curious: why fuck Ubuntu?
Shady stuff Canonical did, crappy point release model (2 years? Even 6 months is a bit of a stretch), and especially snaps.
