Aux.computer: An Alternative to the Nix Ecosystem
For reference, I use Nix a lot. I was pushing it pretty hard at Intuit while I worked there.
All my systems are managed with it:

And I have created projects like Snowfall Lib to make working with certain features easier:

Nix Home Manager Option Search
Declarative home environments are pretty great. Being able to reproduce your entire user setup is fantastic when you manage multiple machines or want to make future migrations.
I run NixOS and use Home-Manager as well. This lets me define my entire system in addition to my user home contents declaratively. So with this configuration I can apply NixOS & Home-Manager to get the same results anywhere.
Here is an example of my Home-Manager configuration: https://github.com/jakehamilton/config/blob/a3da20eeab74a50a...
In this example I configure Git. This gets written to my user home's config directory.

- Cult of the Lamb Twitch integration can't be set up. This dialog pops up when trying to set up Twitch integration in-game. Cult of the Lamb is running with Proton. Is it possible to get a browser to open the URL it's trying to open (or even just copy the URL)?

Firefox now only available via snap
I jumped in several months ago and haven't really regretted it. The caveat being that you have to be okay with learning Nix (the language), debugging with only arcane error messages to go off of, and reading a lot of the config source because documentation is vast but shallow. If you feel like you're willing to make the tradeoff, then it is a blast and you'll be surprised you ever lived without Nix.
In case you want some inspiration or to take an existing config and run, feel free to take a peek at or use mine: https://github.com/jakehamilton/config
