A review of Nix/NixOS after using it on all my machines for three years. I'll cover what works, what doesn't, and why it's the first OS that's stuck with me.
Loved nixOS but couldn’t install PIA VPN gui and disliked the workarounds. Also doing .net dev was more awkward than I liked so went back to Arch and wrote some scripts to install all the packages I want instead. Love the idea of nixOS though.

Package your own if you need it
I have no idea how and given there’s been a lot of people asking the same thing I don’t think it’s as trivial as packaging some binaries.
