nixos, linux (~)
back when I was using nixos, I thought all the problems I was having were because nixos was weird
but no
I get the same amount of frustrating technical problems on arch and on manjaro and on sabayon and on ...
linux is an awful conglomeration of terrible hacks
also I can just use the nixos package manager on sabayon, so that's what I'm doing from now on, because honestly it's the best package manager I've ever used and nothing else comes even close

@viomi tried it several times, still not as good as nix, sorry
it's pretty nice, though
