How has the experience been with NixOS? I've heard it's a pretty good distro

Also what's that htop-like program?

I don't entirely understand Nix, but it seems super cool. Could you theoretically make a setup like this, share the magic Nix config file, and someone could reproduce your exact setup on a different machine? Or am I misunderstanding how it works?

that’s the concept, yes. However, with rices and eye-candy, not everything is ported in nix, so there might be some tinkering needed. But my whole sway config is managed by Nix (with home-manager)
