3,399 #Nixosers took the time to tell us how they use Nix, where they get stuck, and what they want to see improve. Big ❤️ to everyone who responded, and especially to the NixOS Marketing Team! Participation grew 48% from 2024! discourse.nixos.org/t/2025-nixos...

Happy belated Fathers Day! (first time as a father) Promised him I'll wear this to work today.

@temporaltech.bsky.social. @flox.dev. James Bayer. You don't need more ;) Join us next week as we go live on the Agentic Stack and AI Ready Environments with dashes of magic from Flox and Nix! #nixos + #ai = 🧠

Flox@flox.dev · 2mo ago

We're going live with Temporal on June 24. James Bayer shows how a reproducible Temporal + AI dev environment goes from a stack of manual setup steps to one command: `flox activate`. Then more on sandboxing, security & observability. 📆 Jun 24 · 11am PT · buff.ly/8xH3pQu

#NixOS community bat signal 🦇 ❄️ @awscloud.bsky.social has sponsored the Nix S3 Cache for 3 years, and we’re working on what comes next. DM/comment if your company runs Nix/NixOS on AWS, or if Nix is used inside Amazon/AWS. Every example helps show the real Nix footprint. ❤️

You can't afford "works on my machine" friction across humans, agents, local dev and production workflows. @resolveai.bsky.social is one of the most exciting AI companies building right now, and I'm proud @flox.dev is part of their foundation. (#magics of #nixos)

Flox is Growing - 5 New Roles

Hey everyone, I wanted to share a quick update from the Flox side. We are hitting a really wild inflection point right now, and the wider industry is continuing to recognize the magic of Nix, somethi...

discourse.nixos.org

This week we hit one million commits. nixos/nixpkgs ❤️

Happy to say that I've been using Flox for a couple of weeks and so far (after some initial networking weirdness that wasn't Flox's fault) it's Just Worked. The rest of my team is still getting used to it, so it's possible we'll encounter new pain points in the future, but so far it's been great!

NixCon 2026 CFP is open! ❄️🔥 Time to stop telling your friends “someone should give a talk about that” and become the someone. I’m opening up my calendar to help workshop submissions. Brainstorming, tightening abstracts, etc. @nixos.org Drop a reply and we'll book a slot! 👇

Day 0 magic, @flox.dev (with sprinkles of @nixos.org) on stage at NVIDIA's GTC! Many. Many. Launches coming out today & this week 💜 💚 Lots of love to Greg Estes & Josh Minney for making it happen!

I was crushed. @kelseyhightower.com. We went "Trash Pandas" against "Fallout" precon war... @magic.wizards.com how many board wipes did you put in the Ceaser Precon!? #thanks @flox.dev

600+ builders. @kelseyhightower.com & I. Tomorrow morning at #planetnix. We are tackling the main question: Why Nix, and why now? Because AI just 100x'd our abilities and speed but also the complexity of our software stack. Nix is the deterministic rails for the AI era.

"Built to Last" - @flox.dev Thrilled to share that Flox has raised our Series B! We’re on a mission to make software reproducible, portable & secure by default, a foundation teams can build on for decades. This is only the beginning. #nixos
