Couple of noob questions
So first, I'm a bit confused about AUR. I'm not aware of what you're describing. I heard about AUR-like repo for Nix (called NUR https://github.com/nix-community/NUR).

How to install NordVPN onto NixOS
Hi, I'm the author of the PR :) I uploaded it to NUR precisely so that it would be available sooner. However, as I wrote in the thread yesterday, as of this PR one of the components the package was relying on was deprecated. I'm still trying to make it work again using the new buildFHSEnv. However, if you're running 22.11 or haven't updated your local version of nixpkgs beyond that PR, it should still work.

New BFF
Apart from nixpkgs having many packages, there is also NUR which has even more stuff.

Is there NO alternative to the aur?
Nix also has the NUR. I have never needed to use it, while when I used arch I had many AUR packages.
-
Anyone figure out how to apply nvidia-patch in nixos?
Follow the NUR installation instructions and it should be in pkgs.nur.repos.arc.packages.nvidia-patch.
-
Best practices for organizing code repository for multiple machines? What about deployment?
As for the community repo, there's nur but only 120 people use it.. I think the reason nixpkgs is so big is that the community is pretty accepting of accepting loads of different packages.
-
Can one self host a nix package repo?
Some common options for the first: - your own git repo - your own flake (a specially constructed and easy to consume git repo) - something like NUR

Flakes aren't real and cannot hurt you: using Nix flakes the non-flake way
The project uses this overlay: https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay
What that means is if something is broken in Emacs, the community will fix it, and all I need to do is run `nix flake update` to grab the latest commit and then `nix run .#build-switch` to alter my system. Easy.
Thanks for the heads-up on the 404s! I've fixed those links.
In re: to org-agenda, I don't use that as much anymore. But I heavily, heavily using org-roam w/ org-roam-dailies everyday to build my own networked graph of notes. For tasks, nowadays I just use simple docs for projects and Asana to keep a catalog of everything.

NixOS&(Home-Manager) Flake/Overlays Help
Im a newish NixOS user, Ive used it like 20 times before but always quit because I couldnt debug errors, trying not to give up for the 20th time this time lmao; so Ive been trying to learn how to use overlays & flakes for a couple of days now. The ones I want to use/enable are: - Emacs-Overlay - Spicetify-Nix
- My First Impressions of Nix
-
Which package manager should I use?
Nix offers the same advantage through the use of emacs-overlay. Besides, Nixpkgs contains more Linux packages than any other distros. Depending on the user's needs, Nix is another option.
-
It looks like the kellyk Emacs PPA is no longer maintained. Are there any alternatives?
You can use this overlay to get the latest https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay
-
Will any emacs package manager let me audit packages before installing them?
Depending on your goals, emacs-overlay is also worth a look.

How to use Emacs 29 Tree-sitter?
You can install Nix on your mac and use https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay/, which supports all the existing tree-sitter-based major modes OOB.
-
Emacs 29 is nigh What can we expect?
Its great to see both eglot and tree-sitter being merged. However, I am unhappy about the state of 'emacs configurations/distributions' right now. I have been using Doom Emacs, but the development is pretty much stalled there [0], and I don't think there is any distribution that is keeping up with these cutting-edge features (compared to the NeoVim ecosystem, let's say). Somehow it feels like I was seeing a lot more activity about Emacs configurations two-three years ago.
> Compile EmacsLisp files ahead of time
Ooh, this is interesting. Hoping to see a derivation in https://github.com/nix-community/emacs-overlay soon.
[0] I am not complaining though as Doom was the main author's personal config from the get-go. I am just pointing out a void.
