    That is also true for NixOS. Since it’s declarative, the only things that break when you switch DEs are the settings the DEs themselves change when you run them

      I only tried nixos once and briefly, so I’m not that familiar with it. Is it a rolling release distro?

        There’s an unstable channel. Because of how nix works you can mix different channel packages since deps are independent (nothing is installed system wide)
