I'm currently running Arch and it's great, but I'm noticing I'm not staying on the ball in regards to updates. I've been reading a bit about Nix and NixOS and thinking of trying it as my daily driver. I've got a Lenovo x1 xtreme laptop, I don't do much gaming (except OSRS), use firefox, jetbrains stuff, bitwarden, remmina, obsidian, and docker.

Is anyone running NixOS as their daily? How are you liking it and are there any pitfalls / stuff you wish you knew before?

I have been a very happy NixOS user for 2 1/2 years now! (https://github.com/axelf4/nixos-config)

    The biggest barrier for me is the language. It makes no sense to me and I'm a Haskell (as well as others) coder. Also the documentation is non-existent.
