As the title implies, should I do it? I love Arch so far, and I can fix most issues that pop out. However, I sometimes wish to start fresh without too much hassle, but I get a feeling NixOS isn’t as mature as Arch.
Have any of you used both, and if so, what do you miss from Arch? What are you grateful for in NixOS?
Documentation is crap, but has been getting much better recently. Companies are also starting to use NixOS in production and are making contributions. The low friction ARM development process becomes more relevant every day.
That explains it, documentation is ok but not nearly as good as arch’s, feels like it takes a lot of googling
You have to know exactly what to ask for, which is a big problem when you’re starting out
True but that applies to most tech and it’s a transferable skill
