From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I didn't disable selinux
It seems the Determinate Nix installer supports Fedora Atomic and SELinux.
On topic:
I really like Nix and home-manager. I've mostly switched to NixOS because it's more convenient for window manager setups than building ublue images imo.
Having to mess with containers for different dev environments and keeping the up to date is imo more annoying than creating a shell.nix
Also being able manage my dorfiles with home-manager and installing software declaratively helps in keeping the system free of clutter.
