@@jakedespppp Packages are source-based but there's a binary cache that has all the packages as binaries, which it downloads from automatically, Nix only compiles packages from source if you haven't updated in a long time and the binaries were cleared from the cache.
@@comradeklaymore i understand that now. when i posted this comment i was still a lowly arch plebian. however i have ascended to the realm of superiority with nixos. now i can install my entire system with one github repo, while the arch commoners have to type in every single package with their stubby cheeto fingers.
It's genuinely annoying to have to go to your little configuration file to add a pkg. Although I should probably have a better shortcut like in rofi or smth. It's still a very cool distro just Def not for everyone at all
@@noah5592 your answer confirmed what he said mentioned rofi and shortcut show how you're lazy to edit a single simple file in nix the user don't rely to the config all time want to add pkg + there pkgs manager to add more pkgs
@@momomaniac1234 The package manager isn't recommended to be used on NixOS, so that's not a real option, don't be disingenuous and pretend it is. Learning flakes and the nix language is too much work for any regular desktop user that just wants to do simple things, and the lack of documentation only exacerbates the problem.
in the end of the day, when you already setup everything for your work/productivity/gaming and have stable working system and don't need to add any package, you'll not "feel" that you're using arch/nixos/ubuntu/other linux..

Why is this video 32-bit
Shit. My life is 8-bit in a single core CPU.
nix os can fully replace arch
it has the most large linux pkg repo + the most updated
I agree, the problems i had back when the video was uploaded, are essentially now resolved.
yes but its literally all build from source, no bin

Yeah, something is not right, what is that bit rate holy.
turn up ur bitrate lmao
Looking back at the video it does look grainy, not sure how that happened
wut
The answer is yes, archlinux is terrible. The only reason people are not using NixOS is because they are too lazy to go through the learning curve.
