  • And yeah I know about NixOS but I like to distro hop and experiment

    If you know about NixOS, then you probably know this, but Nix, the package manager/the language behind NixOS, is cross-platform.

    I daily drive NixOS, but I also use Nix (and home-manager) on my Fedora music laptop, my Ubuntu home file-server, and my work Windows machine (WSL) to install and configure neovim automatically instead of copying a config, installing all the packages, and running check health over and over again until everything is set up.

    I just copy my neovim.nix file over (also other things like zsh.nix) and run home-manager switch

    You don’t have to use NixOS to take advantage of its benefits.
