OK after testing on a test Mastodon instance I think I am going to probably(90% chance) move to NixOS for my instance(esper.lol).
I do like the setup, centralized file, I can declare all the settings I want in one place and, I can easily move to a new server with this config FAST if need be.
Using social.spiritsandsuch.lol to test my setup, seems great so far. Automated backups, s3 storage, Declared Sidekiq processes, web, streaming, etc.
If I do move it will be on 4.4
