`COPY --chmod` reduced the size of my container image by 35%
With Nix you have to look up obscure sites like this and look for specific hashes and pray that the version you need exists (or package it and distribute it yourself). Approaches like this are not that inviting.

M1: Docker doesn't find shared x64 shared objects even though platform was specified
Distroless images are better left for people with serious need for lightweight images and good Linux knowledge because they require lot of planning with the build so that they stay light and work. If you need lighter images but docker isn't your main tool and you can't afford to take hours and hours of practicing different build strategies you can check docker-slim (https://dockersl.im/). With this tool you can easily size down the images.
