We want to make Nix better
There was some work being done to make Nix work on Windows [0] - but it might have fizzled out. I too would really love Nix to work on Windows. I already use it on both macOS and Linux and it’s great.

Setting up Stabe Diffusion on NixOS
As I mentioned I used nix-index to build LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I believe I picked that up from nix-ld. The README on that page shows an example and mentions some tools (nix-autobahn, nix-alien, and nix-index) to help figure it out.

"global" c libaries in nixos?
Hi guys, I really like NixOS. I also do not want to miss nix-ld, because it allows me to run "normal" Linux programs on nix.

We want to make Nix better
As someone who has been using NixOS for a couple of years now, I really want to say how appreciative I am of everybody for making noticeable improvements to the system on a somewhat regular basis. The nix command keeps on adding great new features like flake templates and bundling as well as just being more user friendly (error messages, actionable hints, etc.) Additionally, tools like nix-ld [1] make nix more usable than ever with software from external sources. Things just keep on getting better for NixOS users!
Despite the reputation, I feel that NixOS or some derivative of it has the power to become the best distribution for non-technical users in the long run. What NixOS has done is effectively built an interface to every component of a modern Linux system, all that needs to be built is a user application to take advantage of it. Of course, there still needs be some improvements in Nix itself for it to blossom into its final form, but I really see a path to greatness here.
I have often thought about creating a simple unified Win2K-esq or BeOS-like X11 WM/DE specifically for NixOS but unfortunately I like the time/motivation.

Any of you went/planning to go back to Arch (or other) as daily driver?
Regarding the ld thing, I don't know if this is relevant but probably: https://github.com/Mic92/nix-ld

Running non nixified packages on NixOS
Have a look at nix-ld and nix-autobahn.
- Is there an actual way of installing libraries globally?
What are some alternatives?
