Sounds great, but I don’t like editing a config file every time I want to install an app,.
Alright, if that’s too much of a hassle you shouldn’t switch. I’m unaware how to do all of that in one step on the command line. All I can say is that the last time I added programs to the array was two weeks ago. So the workload is negligible… on the other hand, on Arch, when installing something new that you then decide not to keep, you need to track the dependencies that you no longer need (pacman -Rs $(pacman -Qqdt)) if I’m not mistaken.
Sounds neat. I am really considering NixOS, that’s why I’m asking for advice here. It really sounds like a nice and more convenient distro. Sadly, I still haven’t figured out how to make my own builders, even after Nix Pills. Thankfully, programs like crate2nix exist.
