Pick Hydra if…
Hydra suits Nix and NixOS package developers who need to build and test projects through jobsets. It is not needed by people who only want to use NixOS.
Pick Ruzu if…
Ruzu suits desktop users who want to run legally obtained Nintendo Switch games or homebrew applications, and who are comfortable with an experimental emulator. Its game library tools and keyboard, mouse, and controller input support different ways to navigate and configure games.
