What OS do you self-host on?
NixOS. If you still need Docker you can define and manage that via Nix too. I love it, both for this and managing development environments. Happy to answer any questions.

What would you consider to be a must for a modern 2022 dev stack?
With Nix we have a shell.nix in the root of our repo describing all of the project's system dependencies. It looks something like this. You can pin nixpkgs with Flakes (think lockfiles) or by hardcoding a specific revision. We do the latter because I didn't want to complicate the Nix install for everyone by requiring they enable experimetnal features.

What Plugins do you use to manage LSP ?

I agree that the documentation story could be better. I also think it's a great shame that the language isn't statically-typed, so to understand how to use something I have to inspect its source code.

Which WM do you use, and why?
Sure thing, I manage it in my dotfiles repo here.

Latest xmonad on NixOS
I wonder if you'd have better luck if you built your xmonad as a proper Haskell app and didn't use the built-in --recompile stuff. It's not Nix, but see here an example of how I'm doing that.
