Lol i used a 64gb pendrive with nixos as my main for months. I only took the effort to switch to ssd becsuse boot was slow and the pendrive started dying. The main problem with nixos is that the learning curve is a wall instead of a curve.

Cosmic yes, idk about pantheon or unity. It probably does have them as nixpkgs is literally the largest package repo.

Make your own with GTK and Hyprland using ags. Its like gnome on the backend but your own custom JavaScript for the frontend.

I was using i3wm and have migrated pretty recently. Rewriting the config was much less scarier than I initially hoped.
