You can nixos-rebuild her, you have the technology.
Reddit ai generated slop.
I feel this, but my other love is gentoo...if only I could get portage to just stop finding more package masks or multiple instances of the same package slot..it's always something that makes me do another upgrade in an attempt to troubleshoot and it's usually because I get so caught up in just fixing silly mistakes that I forget to actually get to the eselect news that would have avoided the last stack of 6 compounding issues in the first place.
But I love how fun it is and I'm never leaving no matter what other nix-like cults pop up

How much more complicated is NixOS compared to a neovim setup? On paper I love the idea.
Much more I think. The initial setup is the hard part, and I would recommend keeping a second computer on the side so you can keep trouble shooting when your display driver shits the bed or your wifi module decides it would like to take a nap.
I installed NixOS a couple months ago, and it's been my smoothest Linux experience to date. Everything just worked, except I had to figure out how to open the firewall for my network drive on my home server to be discoverable and usable. But that was fairly expected. I game, so I stress test the graphics routinely. No WiFi, though, so I guess that could maybe be flaky.
Wouldn't you be able to just rollback to a working generation?
Usually, breaks happen when you're trying to change something - if you aren't trying to install something or change some configuration everything that works will keeps working.
I maintain the opinion that NixOS exists solely to make us Arch users (btw) look not as bad in comparison.
I spent almost 20 years as that wife.
"They may be unstable but at least they notice when I'm in the room" -> As an arch user, fair. I can feel the change in air pressure as the door opens so I notice despite the noise canceling headphones
