I’ve recently discovered nixos containers and was wondering if there where any pros/cons of running them vs. Docker containers. Like if one needs to run a containerised service, would it be better to run it as a nixos container or a docker container in terms of resource consumption? And are there any limitations of each approach?

    Damn, didn’t know it was rootful only. Work is going nuts atm about non zero userId in containers.

    There goes my idea about solving some of our packaging a distribution problems with nix build.
