What's most amazing is how easy it is to switch kernels on NixOS as this article touched on. This prompted me to switch to Cachy kernels, and after some caching delay (apparently need to switch once before caches set) I was able to take advantage of a completely different OS's core strength. Truly the one OS to rule them all. | ||

Sorry, I am a bit confused about the caching delay, which seems to suggest you can switch kernels without rebooting? That's not what the wiki suggests[0], and what even happens to running programs? Or do you mean just changing the "default" boot to a different kernel, which in other distros would require changing the boot loader config? | ||
