NixOS is different to most of the distros that you may have tried before. But sometimes different is a very good thing. In this case I'd go as far as to say it's absolutely brilliant.
You build NixOS with config file, just like a standard dot file. And each time you make a change you rebuild your system. All previous builds are still available aand you can choose to launch any of them from the grub screen, or just keep those that you want.
Each build and package installation is essentially sandboxed, so conflicts are a thing of the past. Wow!
The best advice I can offer is try it for yourself. It's starting to grow on me and I'm going to continue to play with it in the foreseeable future.
I hope you enjoy the video :-)
