#NIXOS @nixos_org is it a good idea to test nixos on a critical system using chroot?
@dichotomiker the mention did not work. it's @nixos_org.
as a professional admin i can tell, it's not a good idea to test anything on a critical system. use a test or staging system for that!
in general, it is recommended to try nixos in a vm. you can then copy the config to the final system when you are happy with it
