Regularly. `yay` rocks. I use systemd-boot (as much as I loathe that Linux == systemd these days), along with LUKS encryption, sbctl for secure boot, and plymouth for a smooth, pretty boot, and it's been glorious. Plus btrfs and snapper for scheduled and triggered snapshots.

Now granted, I blew up 2 or 3 installs messing around, most of it attributed to fumbling something with grub, which is why I moved to systemd-boot.

right… point is its impossible to “blow up an install” on nixos. I can’t imagine testing new kernel versions on a system that couldn’t rollback to a previous stable state

I have investigated, and I *really* like the concept of nixos. I also appreciate how invaluable it is for a developer. I found the language (?) intimidating, and the AUR is just so damn good.
