How is NixOS going? I am also an Arch convert, but the issue with Gentoo is that it feels like a clusterfuck after days spent on configuration that is not easy to replicate. I mean it works but I might not want to go through it next time.

I really like centralised configuration, stability and development environments of Nix

After overcoming initial learning curve and configuring NixOS and Home Manager, I rarely change anything. It just works

And if I ever wanted clean installation or if I moved to another machine, I would just copy config from /etc/nixos/ and it should work the same.
