      Me either but I’m tired of clearing my schedule to read wiki pages every time I want to make any change to my configuration

        Same goes for any distro though. For nix it’s just all in the same place.

          On other distros I don’t have to read the wiki to look up the syntax of installing nvidia drivers, or rustup, or neovim, or home-manager (the package manager that lets me install programs as a user The NixOS Way™ and if you use nix-env instead you’re doing it wrong (the instructions on the wiki for installing home-manager do not work anymore, and also involve nix-channels which you are apparently never supposed to use ever, and even after managing to get it installed and reading 3 articles about it I am still not sure what it does)) because no two of those are installed the same way
