hi I’m still exploring stuff and I was thinking about nix, with all his stuff, what do you guys think? maybe someone with experience can tell me if I should stay away from that or could be a good choice for privacy, anonimity and security

Most distros are somewhat equal when it comes to privacy, anonymity and security; with the likes of Fedora and openSUSE known for taking it more seriously out of the box than the other ‘big bois’, while some smaller distros like Kicksecure are known for their best-in-class[1] hardening that they offer by default.
As for NixOS, it’s really its own thing (together with Guix), and thus very different from any other distros. If you conquer it, you would be delightfully met by a system that enables you to do things unheard of in other distros. However, the learning curve is very steep. And perhaps even hardening it to the level that Fedora or openSUSE provide by default might not be trivial.
Beyond this, TailsOS would be more anonymous.
There’s that Spectrum distro
It’s like Qubes, but on Nixos (it’s in early stages yet)
Link: Spectrum
It’s in very early stages, so nobody probably would need a link
As I hear from other people using it, it’s like 20% usable
It’s worth watching.
This is pretty dope, but they have a matrix room, so I can follow the progress there 😁
