Didn’t really look into NixOS so only learned that it is an immutable OS after reading your article.
I once tried Fedora Sericea. Ended up having many Toolboxes (like Distrobox) with libraries and tools for development, but only a couple of Flatpaks.
I think the ideal user for immutable OS will be someone who want to use computer like a smartphone, just install apps (as Flatpaks) and let the OS do its update things.
I wanted to install jackett and sonarr, they are complicated to use as is, moreover I am using Ubuntu. I am following fuidleine for installing jackett with STUPID command line making it EXTRA difficult. But now I have to change directory ownerships and what nots. I am the ONLY user on this machine.

But that’s what you will want to do…follow the guideline, use commands and set up ownership properly.
Use commands would mean codifying the steps, so even the author doesn’t know how to write English, you won’t make one step wrong.

Been trying to find a good tablet for productivity and recreation. Something that can be used for programming (Not web), and something that can play DRM content....
I daily drive a Starlite 3 (the older version is a laptop) and am happy with it. Once thought about buying the Starlite 5 (the new convertible tablet) when the keyboard on mine was broken, but then gave up the idea because of how repairable the laptop version is. End up I just bought a replacement keyboard.
It is great if you need a touch screen and don’t have concern about repairing. But if it is just for occasional use, I may go with the Pinetab instead. Never tried one but I guess it will be more fun.
I use Linux because I work faster on it than Windows. If it doesn’t help you, why bother keep using it?
But I think the question is why did you switch to Linux in the first place? Both have things they are good at and they aren’t, so if you can’t compromise you will only be unhappy no matter which OS you are on.
