i3wm status bar not working in KDE Plasma
Reddit KDE GitHub ... I don't think you tried hard enough. :)

How do I make my desktop look like r/unixporn
Take a look at this.

DE Vs. Tiling WM
What about kde with i3wm? https://github.com/avivace/dotfiles

The Power of Plasma - New KDE video showcasing some Plasma features
Actually googling around says I can use KDE with I3! Example Hm, this might be my new weekend project.

NixOS Linux
Plasma (on X) generally works very good with other WM. Here's how to use i3: https://github.com/avivace/dotfiles

20 Years of Nix
As far as I know, it’s still about [0]. I’ve had a better experience with deploy-rs though [1] - or even just using nixos-rebuild to target the remote machine.

Will we move away from DSLs?
For example Nix can already replace ansible, packer, cloudformation[1], dockerfiles.

NixOS History and Our Experience - Nix, Null, Nada, Nothing
Nix can also ship the nixpkgs as an oci image (e.g. docker image), vm image, iso, or if you're able to: as a nixos configuration. Tools like nixops can allow you to deploy many machines and have their behavior exactly specified, and the configuration can be version controlled. NixOS configuration can be thought of as congruent configuration management, where many other tools give you many less guarantees about configuration drift and reproducibility.

The best solution for deploying flakes
There are 4 tools I'm taking into consideration right now, but every suggestion is welcome: 1. deploy-rs - I don't know anything about it, heard about it like a day or two ago 2. NixOps - the official one, I don't know what to think, but I have concerns about Flakes compatibility 3. morph - I understand this as "NixOps, but better", no more toughs. 4. colmena - seems to be pretty straightforward with quite nice docs

Spectrum OS: a declarative, reproducible, compartmentalized Linux
I'm still relatively new to NixOS, having switched all my personal systems over to it this spring/summer. I don't have a detailed answer to your question, but I believe NixOPs is the canonical way to do what you're describing in production/at scale:

Tool for managing multiple machines of a distributed system?
Nixops is specifically made for purposes like yours.

NixOS 21.05 Released!
Well, everyone of course! But especially devops, developers, power-users, and ricer folks. Due to the declarative and purity aspect of nixpkgs, all builds and configurations can be version controlled, cached and shared. NixOS can easily be extended to produce docker images, vm images, or even distributed deployments. You can also write reproducible multi-node integration tests. Tinkerers! Love playing around with the latest desktop manager or modifying builds? Nixpkgs allows you to modify any package you wish to, locally! Nixpkgs is actually a source distribution but its guarantees around purity and reproducibility are so strong that you can get a binary cache "for free".

Backblaze Is Now a Terraform Provider
You could use NixOps[0] for Nix but I'm not sure you can directly compare Terraform and Guix/Nix? My set up involves Terraform for infrastructure and Nix for provisioning, and it's working for me so far.

Benefits/disadvantages of Guix System in general and over NixOS?
I'll have to read more about NixOps though, I had kind of forgotten that it existed!
-
NixOS Linux
Kind of off topic, but I would love to have NixOps (https://github.com/NixOS/nixops) as an abstraction layer for every type of cloud service, and not just virtual machines (e.g. queues, object storages, etc).
There is Terraform and Ansible, of course, but Nix seems like it could combine the strengths of both of them.
What are some alternatives?
polybar-themes - A huge collection of polybar themes with different styles, colors and variants.
deploy-rs - A simple multi-profile Nix-flake deploy tool.
lorri - Your project's nix-env
terraform - Terraform enables you to safely and predictably create, change, and improve infrastructure. It is a source-available tool that codifies APIs into declarative configuration files that can be shared amongst team members, treated as code, edited, reviewed, and versioned.
i3-starterpack - A simple guide (and example of configuration) to install i3 & its and essentials packages, then make them look eye candy.
