Hi everyone, someone can explain, in simple words, why considering to switch on NixOs over other distro? And the use case? I think would help a lot of people (including me) to understand it better :D

    Lets you do a lot of things…

    • define your own system config, down to configuration for each program or service
    • lets you modify package (derivations) easily. Need to enable a compilation option, change source, add a patch, etc? You can do it.
    • Can revert between system generations in case of bugs or whatever reason
