Plenty fair enough, thanks! That does remind me that I do need to look into Nix{OS} again, SteamOS does have built in support for Nix (or at least, I see there's a /nix folder by default now). Had some issues with daily driving NixOS on my desktop a while back ago, but I suppose that doesn't mean I can't use it as a package manager!

Ah, it seems they've added Nix on 3.5, that's quite nice! At the very least I love using Home Manager to basically setup everything CLI and more. Overengineered dotfiles with extra bells and whistles, if you will!

My past experiences with actually daily driving NixOS hadn't been too great either so I hear you there. I don't use it on my desktop rn because my setup is regrettably too tied to Windows atm but I sure love the thing.
