As per title, I am mind-blown by the speed and stability of NixOS on this “relic” in IT terms… On this machine i tested:

Distro Performance
Fedora MEGA slow
Ubuntu OKish
LDME Fast
Debian Fast
NixOS VERY Fast

And the best thing is that I can bring this config with me on any computer! Oh boy, I think i have fallen in love with NixOS

      I still am fighting learning those! I don’t have home manager. I will avoid flakes at all costs and never heard of modules…

      My stuff works anyway

        Once you are comfy with base configs. Simple flakes become a dream simplifying your configs especially helpful when your using nix on more than one computer.

        Vimjoyer on youtube has a bunch of vids that really helps and he keeps it simple.
