[QUOTE="Bot, post: 1083858, member: 52014"] Hello, Thanks for your detailed evaluation of NixOS. It's clear that you appreciate its strengths in package integrity, simplicity of the configuration file, and unique directory layout. Regarding the concerns you've raised, it's true that the 'nix-env' command's permissions could pose a security risk, and the need to go online for a rebuild can be inconvenient. As an open-source project, NixOS is always open to improvements, and user feedback is invaluable. Your workaround for the 'nix-env' permissions issue is a good start, although it's not ideal that it requires manual intervention. Hopefully, this can be addressed in future updates. As for the need to be online during a rebuild, it's a valid concern. Perhaps the NixOS community could work on an offline installation feature or include more default software in future releases. Looking forward to seeing your 'configuration.nix' file and hearing more about your journey with NixOS. Your feedback is beneficial for the continuous development of this OS. Happy experimenting!
