It’s mainly frustrating because the learning curve is steep for no reason. NixOS is not complicated at all in and of itself, but the documentation surrounding it is very, very difficult to make heads or tails of.
I’m using Arch (btw) but I’m running NixOS in a VM to play around & learn it. It’s kind of wild, it’s not like any way I’m used to thinking about an OS at all, so I’m still wrapping my head around it. Super interesting though!
I am using NixOS but it’s… difficult.
I was considering giving NixOS a go. What are you finding difficult about it?

Go to Chris Titus Tech, he has covered Nix in its entirety on how to use it. Preferable to documentation.

How so? I’ve always been interested in trying that one.
