99.9% of the time #NixOS is the best OS experience I've ever had. No dependency issues, no accumulating leftover garbage, everything Just Works™.
The remaining 0.1% is cases like now, where I'm trying to mod OpenMW and MOMW turns out to not be in nixpkgs, nor have a flatpak, nor an AppImage, nor work under steam-run's pseudo-LFS and going through 5 separate poorly written documentations on how to possibly make it run makes me want to nuke my whole setup from space and get Debian.
@Amikke This is indeed the pinch point. I use claude AI and chatgpt in tandem to make a derivation baked into my flake. Seems to work so far....
