As the title implies, should I do it? I love Arch so far, and I can fix most issues that pop out. However, I sometimes wish to start fresh without too much hassle.

Have any of you used both, and if so, what do you miss from Arch? What are you grateful for in NixOS?

    In practice it takes a long time to build a config for absolutely everything in your system at least from my experience of it

    There are a few things I’ve not bothered to put in the config like wallpaper, gtk theme, macros (though I do want to put macros in declaratively because it feels like missing a limb not having them)

    System setup wise you can completely wipe the machine and have it back up to where you left it in 20 mins or so
