I love seeing all these posts from NixOS newcomers! It seems anecdotally like LLMs have really given it a boost recently, I guess by reducing the intimidation factor of the language and the unfamiliarity? Of all the positive and negative outcomes I have imagined from LLMs, NixOS becoming popular was not one of them, but I'll take it.

I have been using Nixos for the past 5 years. And I really use the power of nix/nixos since Codex is doing good code with it.

Setup easily systemd-user unit with podman rootless, backup, writing script during build...

Absolutely.

The language is just nothing for a casual Linux user.

Arch? Easy. Gentoo love it. Ubuntu for all my servers.

But nix and nix os, nah.
