> Who wants to use docker on a Mac anyway?
For a long time, before really doubling down on Nix, Docker Desktop was my go-to for getting a Linux runtime whenever MacOS wasn’t sufficient for what I needed. It was slow, but way more portable than having a Linux VM running all the time.
Fast forward to now (since I’ve really invested in Nix) and Nix+Nix-Darwin makes my Mac feel just as configurable and extensible as NixOS/any Linux distribution.
Nix makes me an extremely content MacOS user. :)
