Isn't Nixos the new Arch? Its way more byzantine, still under development, a silicon valley darling and requires learning a new DSL to install packages.
is it really? i had no idea
This is an understatement. It's like a build system, package manager, and git repository were thrown in a blender. Those don't need to be separate systems, but boy does it help pin down what's going wrong.
Rant:
I noped right the fuck out after 60 minutes of trying to get nix to work as an isolated dev+build environment under Ubuntu. It probably works better under NixOS, but it's documented for this use-case too. After things stopped lining up with the docs, I realized it was going to cost me more time than it it would save.
The idea sounds great on paper. I love the concept. I'm not going to learn a language to install software on my system.
