This right here is enough for me to not even bother tying this OS. I'm always interested in operating systems (and the adjacent config systems that live on top of the Linux kernel, Arch Linux is one of those, Gentoo is another). But I'm not so interested in adding vitriol to my life, no matter the technical excellence. I'd rather live with a mundane kludge than deal with knowledge elitism.

In my experience the Nix community is extremely welcoming and refreshingly vitriol-free. This person isn't representative of the community.

But I would put up with a lot, if the payoff is more knowledge.
