Nix* is a great package manager and OS - its a shame that they pushed the ORIGINAL developer out all in the name of DEI bs. IMO. 

DEI isn't DEI at its core that pushes out anyone who doesn't bow down to extremes... just give it another few years and the pendulum will swing the other way. I'm all about coming together NOW, before we have to endure another decade of this BS.

I won't use any of these projects that push PEOPLE out;

NixOS
Elementary OS
Firefox
Red Hat
and several others. Its a shame as all are valued projects bigger than the people that hijacked them.

IMO.
