Heya, been hearing about NixOS for a long time now, mostly from the peeps over at the Linux Unplugged podcast. So was thinking about jumping onto the nix-train, however it seems like it has a learning curve. Does anyone have any good learning resources, blog-posts, guides, whatever beans that you used to get started with NixOS?

Appreciate any tips ❄️

    I’ve actually been getting into NixOS recently; interested in replacing an old server I’ve had for like 10 years with something I can just build from a bunch of config files.

    Can confirm it is confusing and I have no idea how anything works. :D

    In my searches, I’ve come across https://nixos.org/guides/nix-pills/ , which I’ve gone through a few chapters of - seems good so far.
