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 πŸ₯Ί

@spacekookie discourse.nixos.org/t/what-are ah, I see. I only package stuff for Linux x64 because nobody except for me and my buddies uses my software. πŸ˜†

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. πŸ€”

But for stuff which needs the same expression to be evaluated to support several platforms, flake-utils should be a clear yay?
