I tried to run NixOS on my eeepc, it feels a lot more sluggish than when I used to run arch on it. I would love to see how this plays out, if only to have a smaller, lightweight version of NixOS to run on my pi's and eeepc. The extra security stuff sounds cool but is a bit of a specific use case. I would probably just run tails/qubes if I cared about that. Otherwise looks cool!
