>By default, Nix uses the unstable branch of packages. To switch to the stable channel, run:

>nix-channel --add https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-24.11 nixpkgs

>This command sets your nixpkgs channel to the latest stable version (in this example, 24.11). In the future, check the current stable version on the NixOS homepage.

Any particular reason for not having a "latest" that will automatically detect the latest release instead of forcing each user to manually check and set the latest stable release every time?
