Curious what the opinions these days (in my bubble) are on flake-utils: yay or nay?
3 votes to 2 votes is not the landslide victory for flake-utils I expected 😭

@spacekookie I kinda never bothered to learn what they are, I thought they are a compat layer for nix without flake runtime code enabled and nix with flakes. All my nix installs have flakes enabled 🥺
@spacekookie https://discourse.nixos.org/t/what-are-reasons-to-not-use-flake-utils/21140/5 ah, I see. I only package stuff for Linux x64 because nobody except for me and my buddies uses my software. 😆
I think I would rather have other maintainers maintaining their own flakes for the platforms they care about and import it in the integration flake. 🤔
But for stuff which needs the same expression to be evaluated to support several platforms, flake-utils should be a clear yay?
