with another OS nix is not going to be "in control" so it's probably more limited. I'm not sure how common using nix is outside of nixos.

also I'll point out that many other linux distros I think recommend doing a full system backup even immediately after installation, the "grep history" thing is not very stable as eg. apt installing a package today will default to the newest version, which didn't exist 1 year ago when you last executed that same command.
