Not much else different? That’s kinda what I expected, about the same experience, just in Guile Scheme instead of Nix and with a different package repo.

How is Guix? I run NixOS right now, and I didn’t find Guix until like right after I invested all the time and effort to learn Nix. I kind of want to switch, but I also don’t really want to abandon Nix right after I learned it.

No, I think they understood. Android needs those settings because the process is automated. A Linux device would probably not automate updates like that and let users choose when to do so, which means they can just not do it until they get to WiFi.

I installed NixOS a couple months ago, and it’s been my smoothest Linux experience to date. Everything just worked, except I had to figure out how to open the firewall for my network drive on my home server to be discoverable and usable. But that was fairly expected. I game, so I stress test the graphics routinely. No WiFi, though, so I guess that could maybe be flaky.

There’s work being done on it, but from my understanding, it’s slow going…
