I’m hoping NixOS figures out these inevitable growing pains. The problem they’re having has a ton to do with flakes and Eelco not wanting to accept the community’s pushback on this feature. So, he implemented the feature in his “upstream” project.

I use it all the time but I’m told it is unstable.
