With Linux, at least it's easy to fix things myself. Doubly so for NixOS which is especially hackable. The UX is atrocious and you don't get the network effects of the mainstream though.

It's because you are programmer and worked with command line. I had seen many technical minded people completely mess up their linux installation.
That's why I like NixOS! If I ruin everything, I can just reboot & pick the last known working config since it's all immutable.
