I've been using Nix and NixOS for 4 years now. While I like using it for my PCs and tried using it for servers with success, I think its ecosystem still is immature for development and production purposes, and thus my passion for Nix has faded.

So my question is what keeps you using Nix or NixOS? How have you been using it? Do you still feel passion and hype for it?

I've only been using it for about a year, but as of now I can't imagine ever going back to imperative system configuration. Having my infrastructure declared in its entirety by a version controlled code base is just too comfy.
