    Asking tony: Is NixOS Just Hype? (2077 Edition)

    There's a community of 8 users, that are very persistent, and always trying to get you to install NixOS. They swear by it and say it's the best thing ever happened after the discovery of fire and the invention of the wheel. @tony-btw is one of those users, and he will share about NixOS with us, so we can see if it's just hype, or if we should give it a try.
