Isn’t this the same country handing out golden beepers?
Just waiting for the day an evil hacker leaks someone’s smoker data to the neighborhood, exposing they cranked the smoker to 375° when they bragged about their brisket cooking 225° the whole time.
Knew someone who had to rush a family pet to emergency vet and they were able to keep an eye on the brisket cooking.
Keep it Low & Slow!
So it just pulled a Vic from Game Changer S7 E1 “one year later”?
I’d say Arch Linux if you are sure about doing something else than Proxmox. The wiki and help posted on the internet might benefit Arch switch currently. You can get the experience you are looking for and it doesn’t box you out of using Nix. Arch will get you going sooner IMO.
NixOS seems fun though and I’ve only recently starting messing with it. You will do best engaging with what you prefer best. The NixOS switch could pay better dividends in the future though.
If I recall this hasn’t been the first time NixOS has had to consider Palmer/Anduril. You could keep an eye out for the auxolotl project that is doing an alternative/fork of Nix.
