I've had my Framework laptop for a few months now and NixOS (GNOME desktop) has been working excellently.

Same, although I use Nixos with Pantheon WM.

Since it boots to desktop in 10-15 seconds I don’t have to deal with the overnight power issues everyone complains about. And since it doesn’t run a hundred automatic background processes it’s much quicker to start working than my MBP was.

Printing on the other hand…

I haven't done so yet, but I've been meaning to set up deep sleep so the machine effectively shuts down and stops drawing as much power.

Oh dear. I haven't had to print with it yet, I hope it isn't too bad. My last experiences with Linux printing went well, but then again that was back when I was using Ubuntu.
