Exact same experience here. Been fiddling with nixos for quite a while, but never got comfortable with .nix or flakes. The base concepts keep escaping my mind, I have to revisit every time I have to configure something new and I just got tired. Issues are difficult to debug and you have to go through very specific commands and a hellish filesystem to understand what's going wrong. I love the concept, but I feel like it just gets too much in my way.

> and a hellish filesystem

What do you mean by this part? The actual filesystem like Ext4/ZFS/etc? Or the removal of the unix Filesystem Heirarchy and replacement with a simulated/softlinked version in Nix/OS?
