NixOS > Arch
Having just restored a Pop_OS machine I'm starting to give a real hard look at NixOS. Every time I had install a package or make changes (that I end up making on all of my workstations) I kept thinking, "this could all be defined in a single config and I could be done by now..."
It's an interesting learning curve.
I would really recommend using flakes, basically lockfiles which abstract away some pains with dependencies.
