Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

RedNixOS - NixOS-based 'distro' for cybersec
Not sure about central but just search dotfiles, config, or flake on GitHub and filter by nix language. Most dotfiles are a sort of “distro” as nix let’s you configure everything from scratch in a central way. Eg my personal dotfiles are an abstracted layer of NixOS/home manager. This can be seen honestly in a lot of popular configs. Eg my WireGuard module turns high level options into automatic configs (see: module).

Nix and NixOS Get So Close to Perfect
What’s powerful about nix is the language IMO. I was able to build an automatic WireGuard setup[1] with tagging that automatically works on each new machine thanks to the ability to do config as code. Just provide some basic config for each machine and the code turns it into an interface with peers.
The issue to me isn’t the language persay (it’s really a tiny surface area language, see the built in/lib functions [2]) but the tooling built around packaging is a hodgepodge mess of semi-documented workarounds (with Nixpkgs blessed ways vs used libraries) and is extremely difficult to approach and understand.

Confused about Git, gnome-keyring, and libsecret
As a heads up setting up gnome-keyring is an adventure in and of itself when not using GNOME which from the sounds of it you are not. It took me a month of on and off trial and error to finally quash the last of its bugs. You can search around my dotfiles where I have it working but the solutions are all over the place (modules/system/gnome/default.nix, modules/users/graphical/shared.nix, and modules/users/graphical/wayland.nix).

Flake structure for multi system
I’ll just add on, I use functions in my nix file to make configs (iso, home manager, nixos),: function folder. With this logic you can create basic other hosts. How they are used in used in flake.nix

Best way to manage multiple home manager configs for both NixOS and non-NixOS systems using flakes?
I do what you describe in a very simple way. It's not really made for multiuser configurations as i mix home-manager config of services and packages with nixos, something i will review one day. It's a flake for macos/linux/nixos but there are certainly other more fancy repositories out there. https://github.com/sebastiant/dotfiles

Flakes, nixos and home-configuration help
My dotfiles does almost what you describe. I don't configure mulitple users but it should be pretty clear on how to do that. Hope they are of any help! https://github.com/sebastiant/dotfiles

What's the proper way to set up nix / home manager w/ flakes, directory wise?
For reference here's yet another flake example. It's very basic compared to already posted flakes https://github.com/sebastiant/dotfiles

Flake structure for multi system
Mine sets up a nixos host, a linux host and a macos host with nix-darwin, all with home manager: https://github.com/sebastiant/dotfiles/blob/master/flake.nix
