long-term Nix and NixOS users, why do you still use Nix/NixOS? Has your interest about it diminish? (lemmy.my.id)

I've been using Nix and NixOS for 4 years now. While I like using it for my PCs and tried using it for servers with success, I think its ecosystem still is immature for development and production purposes, and thus my passion for Nix has faded.

So my question is what keeps you using Nix or NixOS? How have you been using it? Do you still feel passion and hype for it?

I've been using it for around 5 years on my desktop and VM servers. I have one template config for my servers and just add a new service for whatever I'm doing on that server. And their services list just keeps getting better.
