For me at least the Nix ship has sailed. I'm all in on containers for both prod and local dev environments. Yeah the MacOS performance for volume mounting sucks but we can largely cope.

If the Nix story was more together a few years ago I might have been swayed. Currently though containers is good enough.

Who knows maybe it is worth using Nix when it comes to ARM devices. We'll see I guess.

Nix is a great way to build containers (or much saner than Dockerfiles, at least), so your comment seems weird.
