Almost too slick for my needs. Like there's a point where something is just too efficient to be worth the learning curve. I get why woke folks like it cause it's perfect centralized control.

I'd challenge that a bit and say it's even more individualized. I think that's why the logo is a snowflake made of git logos. They don't (and can't) control what I do in my configuration.nix in any way...I am the household 'IT guy' for (too?) many devices and...well...this makes managing them 'simple as' 🤙🏻

Not that nix controls what you do, but that whoever the admin is can control every nix device he manages.

Existential crisis

...dude. I'm about to move three laptops and a desktop from Ubuntu to #NixOS with a single set of configuration files (in a shared git repo).

If I want to make a household-wide change to permissions or settings? Update a single file. If one of them needs a particular software package that the others don't? I update their own {username}.nix.

This...is bananas.

Say what you want about the wokies that run it, but NixOS is friggin' awesome.

Sounds intriguing.

Decentralized config mirrors decentralized currency, a threat to fiat's centralized control, much like Bitcoin's rise amidst 1971's Nixon shock.
