I’m currently running Arch and it’s great, but I’m noticing I’m not staying on the ball in regards to updates. I’ve been reading a bit about Nix and NixOS and thinking of trying it as my daily driver. I’ve got a Lenovo x1 xtreme laptop, I don’t do much gaming (except OSRS), use firefox, jetbrains stuff, bitwarden, remmina, obsidian, and docker.

Is anyone running NixOS as their daily? How are you liking it and are there any pitfalls / stuff you wish you knew before?

    Its been a while since I did it. I needed towboot but you couldn’t install that with the default distro, then I tried installing another distro and now it doesn’t even show an LED when I plug it in. Is it flash, is it something else? Dunno. Just hasn’t been enough of a priority for me to spend more time on it.
