never had that issue before, as long as they have the same version and config
I have those on Gentoo sometimes, possibly because I overloaded USE too much, but that's not something I have to deal with on Debian/Mint.
wasn't that possible before with snapshotting (btrfs/lvm)?
If it allowed me to avoid systemd, I would be willing to give it a go. Perhaps I will try it in a VM, but it's not going on any baremetal for now.
Then you are very lucky. "It worked on my machine" is a meme for a reason.
I haven't used snapshotting with those before. I guess the difference is that with nix it is done by the package manager by default, with btrfs/lvm you would have to set that up independently (please correct of this is not the case).
