Hi everyone!

I saw that NixOS is getting popularity recently. I really have no idea why and how this OS works. Can you guys help me understanding all of this ?

Thanks !

      Yup, I did the same thing. I really wanted to make it work but I think it just needs some time to mature. Once it has some clean documentation and polishing it’ll be really cool.

      I really liked how NixOS has a hardware config repo. I have a Framework, used the config, and everything just worked. I mean it usually does on other distros too but it’s nice to know that if there’s a config it’ll be guaranteed to work.

      I’m currently really enjoying kinoite. I think it also has some documentation issues but it’s also not as radically different from your average distro as NixOS…
