Is anyone using NixOS as their daily driver?

I'm currently running Arch and it's great, but I'm noticing I'm not staying on the ball in regards to updates. I've been reading a bit about Nix and NixOS and thinking of trying it as my daily driver. I've got a Lenovo x1 xtreme laptop, I don't do much gaming (except OSRS), use firefox, jetbrains stuff, bitwarden, remmina, obsidian, and docker.

Is anyone running NixOS as their daily? How are you liking it and are there any pitfalls / stuff you wish you knew before?

Of course. There's just one pitfall: there's no turning back, once you grasp it, the inferior ways of the past become unbearable.

It is really very addictive how easy it makes managing your system isn't it
