Hi,

According to this issue: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/91748

Is there a plan that the nix can bootstrap itself on macOS Big Sur?

I’m considering using the time machine back to the old macOS or not. Hope the time will not much longer.

Thank you!

I posted details here https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/104580, but as long as you don’t need to build staging or make changes to the stdenv itself this shouldn’t be an issue since the steps that aren’t compatible yet will be cached already.
