      Can confirm. I have used one or the other exclusively for 20 years. Mostly on laptops. And these days with just a tiling window manager and terminal.

      It just works.

        Exactly. And here I am, after 2 days of trying to bend NixOS to my will, and I gave up. Tomorrow, I’m going back to Fedora, where everything worked perfectly, because I fell for “Shiny thing sindrome”, or the “grass is greener on the other side” stuff. Should have never doubted it. After 2 years of full time Linux and a lot of distrohopping, one would think I’d have known better.

          NixOS is a nightmare. It works then you want to do something that can be done on another distro and you can’t. Same just went to silver blue at least acts like a regular distro.

            I’ve been trying the same with Bazzite and ublue. Also gave it 2 days, and then left it as well, right before doing that with NixOS.
