I really recommend people try Nix first without the full blown OS if they are hesitant.

I find for my laptop I get 90% utility that way in including user systemd services.

I love all the NixOS blog posts but I hate that they are always so surface level. NixOS feedback or writeups never go beyond this shallow level.

I didn't went into details since I'm relatively new to Nix.

I'll make a follow-up in more time (some months) and go in more details!

Not a comment on your post but the NixOS ecosystem in general

Probably should've used the word "dislike" instead of hate. Apologize.

As someone whose been using Nix for almost a year (not NixOS as long) I struggle that there is zero advanced write ups.

Could be because it's the same experience which is good news.

But there's a series of advanced concepts that deserve more love: custom Nix cache, distributed building, remote deployments , NixOps, writing eloquent derivations, secret management (please!), how to sanely use vim_configurable etc...

I spent a long time documenting the Maven (Java) documentation and recently had it approved.
