How do I actually update home-manager?
$ home-manager --version 23.05 $ nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/release-23.11.tar.gz home-manager $ nix-channel --update $ nix-shell '' -A install [...] All done!

Run 'man home-configuration.nix' to see all available options. $ home-manager --version 23.05

An Overview of Nix in Practice
> Channels are, AFAIU, a reference to some point-in-time/commit/version of nixpkgs
It's not specifically nixpkgs, but any Nix code generally.
Per the Nix manual[0]:
> Channels are a mechanism for referencing remote Nix expressions and conveniently retrieving their latest version.
e.g. home-manager's suggested channel is just the github tarball for the relevant branch[1]:
nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/master.tar.gz home-manager

Need help on home manager neovim config
I'm using flakes and home manager and not really sure how to go about managing my neovim configuration. I've read through some other posts, github issues, and various articles trying to suss out a good way to do this. Reading through other people's configs and posts was somewhat helpful but there is a lot going on I don't understand and everyone's examples I've seen vary wildly.

I want to like NixOS but... I can't and I need some help
I can't answer all your questions, but home-manager does have a dconf module that would probably be better to use than that external tool. Everything inside the options block are the things you can pass to the dconf module.

Burgr – Books in Your Terminal
We live in a time of a Renaissance of terminal tools. I recently discovered Himalaya[1], a command line tool for email, and I really like it. I'm also interested in exploring a new tool for calendar called qcal[2]. I'm kicking around writing a chat client for GroupMe for the terminal right now. That way I could finally ditch pidgin.
Like the OP, I spend all day in tmux these days, which is in many ways the most superior UI[3]. As a bonus, CLI tools are often cross-platform and very easy to write.
