> This is a huge problem IMO, I can't run C/C++ or Python projects the "old way" and no one is willing to upend their build system and lock it into nix.

For Python I use uv to download & set up Python binaries outside Nix. To make them work I enabled nix-ld in my Nix config, so there's a default linker & libc they can access. Works well so far.
