Totally agreed. That’s a big ask, though, because Arch’s docs are the gold standard.

I’m working on converting to impermanence mode this week and let’s just say I’d be done by now if the answers were even close to the quality found in Arch’s wiki.

This is the one thing stopping from swapping to Nix. I would love to have a drop in file for my mini PC, but right now staying in the arch ecosystem is just easier

Don’t worry. NixOS users are spiritual brothers to Arch users, IMO, and we’ll eventually get to the point where it’ll be easier with canonical examples. 🤝

In the meantime, try out the nix package manager while still using Arch to build a package here or there if you’re so inclined.
