OP in a couple of days
I used Arch for a few years before I really got sucked into distro-hopping. Finally settled on Debian for 2 years, last year I moved to Gentoo, and I swapped to NixOS just last week. I am feeling like NixOS has the potential to stick around for the long haul, I am a big fan of the declarative nature of the distro. Still ironing out some bugs, though (I also recently switched from i3 to Hyprland, so the X->Wayland swap has been an additional hurdle.
Same here! Looks pretty beefy to me
I actually did this for a few months until I saved up enough for a decent dedicated firewall appliance. Got a cheap PCIe 2x1GB NIC off Amazon and passed it directly to an OPNsense VM.
Honestly, it wasn’t that bad. The only downside is that that Proxmox server was just an old repurposed desktop PC that was super underpowered, so the VM only had like 2GB of RAM and that ended up being a bit of a bottleneck under load.
I also use neovim, using a Lua-based config. I recently switched to NixOS though, so I may be moving all of my configs to Nix at some point
I was using Gentoo for a while, but I kept having issues with the proprietary Nvidia drivers, so I set up a Win10 VM with GPU passthrough.
I actually just switched to NixOS, haven’t had a chance to get my games set up just yet but I am excited for the number of people I have seen have success with it. Setting up gaming is next on my list.
