I've wanted to use nix for a very long time, but every time I devote a few hours to using it, some intractable issue always stops me. Years ago it was a lack of any support for shells other than bash and zsh. I've been using fish for over a decade.

I'm sure that's been fixed, but the issue for attempting to use it again is that something else will come up. I'm not expecting it to work perfectly, but I'd prefer the bugs be small, not showstoppers.

I love the idea, having everything as config layers, but still think the process needs more iteration. Frankly, I like guix more, in theory anyways, but haven't given it a chance. Maybe it's choice paralysis, and I need to just rip that bandaid off one of these days
