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

I hope nobody has done that
FreeBSD also has its own ports system which has 29678 (source: repology.org) packaged project.

Remembrance, a reminder app for Linux
According to repology nix is third place in term of the number of maintainers.

PackagingCon – a conference only for software package management
I love me some fpm, but I recently discovered it has a golang pseudo-replacement: https://github.com/goreleaser/nfpm#readme
It's for sure a ton harder to use (IMHO) because it mandates the creation of a manifest yaml, versus "fpm -s dir -t deb my-directory && echo tada" but not having to deal with ruby (or docker) can make it a better fit for several circumstances

LURE: AUR on non-Arch distros
I'd love to, but I am currently unable to because XBPS packages aren't supported upstream at nfpm. I might look at creating a PR to add support once my current PR that adds Archlinux package support is merged.
