Ouch if nixos doesn't work well that's a deal-breaker, what were the issues and how long ago? Other people seem to have had decent experiences with it
Oh. The problem wasn't the hardware. Don't let my experience dissuade you, especially if you already know and like NixOS. It was the NixOS docs and my unfamiliarity with Nix/NixOS. Following the official docs gave me an install that worked perfectly but had no networking. I might give it another go once the docs are more mature but the experience and need of a DSL left a bad taste in my mouth.
Ahh I see ok makes more sense
Already got thousands of lines of nix config so not about to hop distro lol
Yeah. You shouldn't have an issue then - all of the nix stuff worked as it was supposed. Really a documentation problem more than anything.
