Its not for everyone but I've been using NixOS as my desktop OS for nearly 10 years and I am honestly pretty satisfied with the experience.
Hey, to offset the person in the other comment, I want to say this: thanks for making home-manager and firefox-addons, my digital life is so much better with those <3
Ohh so that's why that name was familiar.
Thanks, that is very nice to hear!
Suspiciously you're the one who's trying to be included into every Nix{,OS} conversation with alternative facts easily disproved with a 5 second ddg search. Also, you're writing this to friggin rycee 1 2 3, which is just a cherry on top. Sincerely, someone who's mastered time travel because apparently running NixOS 15.09 on a desktop was not possible in this timeline. Oh wait whoops people have been running NixOS on desktop since 2007.
(honestly, you must be trolling, I just don't see any other reason to do this shit.)
Yes they have? Why are you just making shit up.
