Finally switched to NixOS and I'm pretty happy so far!
Yeeting Arch without wiping /home was an interesting adventure though. I didn't have a disk handy to copy the whole drive and do a clean install so I first converted from ext4 for btrfs, encrypted the drive, removed the swap partition and then installed NixOS after moving / and /home to their own subvolumes and making snapshots.
Idk how but it worked haha!
