XMonad – The Automated Tiling WM
i3 has manual tiling by choice and it isn't necessary to port automatic tiling to i3 itself. You can make a service that utilizes i3's IPC that does that. And of course people have done so[1][2].

What are your favorite ways to improve your I3 WM experience that other people should try out?
I prefer i3 to any other twm, but the lack of any automatic layout drives me nuts, so I use https://github.com/olemartinorg/i3-alternating-layout in my autostarts

nwg-dock 0.0.1 ready for testing
The original concept comes from https://github.com/olemartinorg/i3-alternating-layout. I only wrote a script capable of working on both i3 and sway.

miasma
I don't know. Have been using colorbuddy for ages now and it has always done exactly what I want. I don't need the "instant reaload" that lush advertices, doing :source on the colorscheme file, does the same for me to preview changes instantly. This is my theme, in case you need something to start with: - https://github.com/pinpox/nixos/blob/main/home-manager/modules/nvim/lua/config/pinpox-colors.lua

Looking for a transfer tool for command line
I use this to serve a directory temporarily.

Bluetooth headphones problem
I can't remember why I put that workaround in there, might not be needed any more. The above config is part of my dotfiles, I use my Bose blueutooth headphones by connecting them via the blueman-applet if the don't pair automatically

Including third party flakes in a NixOS (or Home Manager) configuration flake
Here is an example from my config : I'm using an external flake called "matrix-hook", which is a little tool I wrote and have put in a separate flake. It get's included here. I am then passing self to each of the nixosConfigurations here, this allows me to import the module from the external flake in the configuration.nix of the host where I want to use it.

NixOS for selfhosting?
Yep, I have two different modules with defaults for server and for desktop. Host-specific settings are set in the according /machines//configuration.nix file. Most stuff is modularized into modules that can be reuesed and enabled at will.

Nix-rice: rice your system with nix
Yep, I'm using the toJSON function already. The problem I had, was that not all applications use JSON as configuration format. Also the nix code gets very long, if you have to write the whole template as a string, which I find quite unreadable. Mustache is a pretty simple frequently used templating language, here is an example template that get's rendered by the nix code above.
-
Ricing with NixOS?
My system uses a uniform colorscheme defined here. Configs for all applications I use read that and use the same colors. The wallpapers are randomly generated by a tool I wrote, it also automatically matches the colorscheme. Icons and symbols are colored the same way for awesomeWM.

My neovim config with a colorscheme created with nix
In case you are interested I use this and this to generate colorschemes, awesome config and a matching wallpaper

Dumping Tmux
Check out wezterm it has replaced tmux for me. Very active development, fast and just the right amount of features for my taste. It is configured in Lua, so if you are doing that for neovim already, it's another plus. I use it in combination with awesomeWM. My (not very special) config is here if you need something to start with.
