I will give it an honest try but so far I am upset by the software not working as expected.

And hell your documentation is lacking.

There is a single software center currently in beta to install software with gui. And the nix-env version does work well actually but the configuration.nix install is hardly documented and not intuitive.

Nice. The only usable tool is using non unique naming.

You need to think about NixOS backwards. It's like learning a new operating system. It's extremely stable, hell it won't let you update if something breaks, but it does feel like whac a mole at times

I could fix most of my issues by purging kde settings. And fixing the ownership of the home folder.

I could get working iscsi. And now I think I am happy with what is working. Screen tearing is a bit of a issue thanks to Nvidia and my 2 monitor setup, but it isn't as bad as on other oses.
