What is the Fedora experience like?
For comparing package versions across distros, I like https://repology.org/. Fedora's official online package search is https://packages.fedoraproject.org/.

NixOS RFC 136 accepted: A plan to stabilize the new CLI and Flakes incrementally
fwiw nixpkgs has significantly more packages than arch (including the aur), and those packages are also significantly more up to date. No other repo comes close to nixpkgs in this regard. This has been the case for quite some years now.

Package repo question, availability of packages
I think available package number is a bit of an exaggeration. looking at the statistics, the most packages are on nixOS. but there are other topics such as number of maintainers, update and stability. so middle ground is debian testing and arch. i suggest repology.org to look stats

Couple of noob questions
I believe it likely was a comparision in number of packages, currently nixpkgs outnumber AUR (although it also contains packages that are part of other languages): https://repology.org/

Linux Software Map
I guess the modern equivalent of that would be https://repology.org/
Although the focus is on the version aspect, so descriptions are a bit hidden and I'm not sure they're searchable.

ubuntu-debullshit! Script to get vanilla gnome, remove snaps, flathub and more on Ubuntu
I know that "number of packages" isn't a perfect metric, but going by that Nixpkgs is the largest (see https://repology.org/).

Is it possible to install older versions of XFCE (such as 4.14)
to find a distro still supporting that version you can use https://repology.org/ or https://pkgs.org

Couple of noob questions
So first, I'm a bit confused about AUR. I'm not aware of what you're describing. I heard about AUR-like repo for Nix (called NUR https://github.com/nix-community/NUR).

How to install NordVPN onto NixOS
Hi, I'm the author of the PR :) I uploaded it to NUR precisely so that it would be available sooner. However, as I wrote in the thread yesterday, as of this PR one of the components the package was relying on was deprecated. I'm still trying to make it work again using the new buildFHSEnv. However, if you're running 22.11 or haven't updated your local version of nixpkgs beyond that PR, it should still work.

Is there NO alternative to the aur?
Nix also has the NUR. I have never needed to use it, while when I used arch I had many AUR packages.

Anyone figure out how to apply nvidia-patch in nixos?
Follow the NUR installation instructions and it should be in pkgs.nur.repos.arc.packages.nvidia-patch.

Best practices for organizing code repository for multiple machines? What about deployment?
As for the community repo, there's nur but only 120 people use it.. I think the reason nixpkgs is so big is that the community is pretty accepting of accepting loads of different packages.
