Don’t install NixOS. Seriously. It is insanity

Don’t install NixOS because it’s got Anduril and Palantir all over it.

What does "all over it" mean in this context?

Big users, contributors, and sponsors. Sponsored Nixcon. The nix organisation seems to have no problem with this.

I’d be willing to argue that running anything OTHER than NixOS is insanity. Except maybe Debian. Everyone loves Debian.
