PopOS as a daily driver right now. Debian for servers.

Open to try something new. But I know debian envroments best.

I love Arch as a daily driver used it for years and would gladly continue to use it but I'm still in my honeymoon phase with NixOS.

Highly recommend either.

Can't recommend arch if you have a temperamental graphic's card. Nix seems stable with it, though.

Even unstable systems can be made stable with Nix, thats why Ive been raving about it recently lol.

Borked my system and did a --rollback and it was a powerful feeling lmao

I did have Nix once not rollback due to some hash it couldn't find in its store.

Did you have auto-optimize and store clean enabled?

I'm not sure if I did. I tried to run store clean after the fact though, and it didn't take.

Good to now! I’m running Debian right now, but am really interested in NixOS

Just be ready for the steep learning curve, if you're ready to learn tho nix feels really powerful once you get the basics down. ❄️
