   The feeling "Wow, this WiFi is pretty bad, I'll route this through my phone instead" never gets not-weird.

      One afternoon of Nixing around wasn't too bad, less than half a gigabyte.

         Also, to tie into earlier comments today: Nix isn't the only software running into my RAM limitations. raco (racket package manager, compiler and more) also wanted a few gigabytes at one point, and my computer froze for ten minutes until it sorted that out, so that was even worse than the ghc installation thing. Currently I have 2.5 GB swapped out (mostly not active, thankfully) and I did get around to enabling zswap (at least for this session) after that stranglehold.
