NixOs why? (lemmy.ml)
submitted 1 year ago by 0therbit5@lemmy.ml to c/linux@lemmy.ml

Hi everyone, someone can explain, in simple words, why considering to switch on NixOs over other distro? And the use case? I think would help a lot of people (including me) to understand it better :D

You like linux but really miss the Windows registry :-P

Please elaborate because if you actually understood the Windows registry you would realize they aren’t the same 😂 maybe you should read some actual code

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
