It’s a lot of work tbh. I’ve used arch for 10+ years and recently switched to NixOs to give it a spin, and couldn’t get my exact setup that I wanted for tools and accessories I use, and the system immutability isn’t that practical imo. So I switched back to my old Arch setup and now just use Flakes for various projects I have, basically just the Nix part, which is very nice imo.
Of course… People are dumb enough to want regulation when it serves their needs and can’t see far enough on how it would hurt others…
