+1. I’ve been using it for a while, and it fixes my problems with homebrew - mostly that homebrew breaks features every couple of weeks in small point releases, which you get automatically upgraded to
Auto upgrade sucks but it is possible to turn it off
But then what? You still have to deal with the mess when you do manual upgrades.
Nix seems to be the Crossfit of the computing world.

How do you know someone uses Nix? They'll tell you :D
