What are your arguments to hate Nix? Must have a lot to be almost as bad as Microsoft.

    I think the same reason people don't like NixOS is why it might be good for enterprise / government.

    For personal use, it can be a pain to learn and configure everything the way that you want it. There is not as much value in having it be reproducible if you're the only person using it

    For enterprise use, the IT team can set it up and have it work the same way across every machine.
