The headline felt a little weird, but turns out this wasn't written by Eelco. I thought how can they have found nix in 2016 if they've created it to begin with lol
Either way, I've switched all by one of my machines to Nix now, including my Darwin laptop, and it's honestly been pretty damn good.
Aside from the huge learning curve, and a pretty depressing turnover rate for an occasional package update request, especially when it comes to home-manager.
The ability to have a flake structure, that you can push to git, and then re-use on all of your systems, is huge.
