What is there to NixOS that is not just `nix` the package/config/whatever manager?
I meant that both /etc and systemd management are possible via nix on non-nixos, using a flake that has system-manager (see https://github.com/numtide/system-manager) as an input

Does anyone use system-manager or some alternative?

Have you convinced anyone to use Nix or NixOS? Friends? Coworkers?
None at all, I recommend Nix package manager and home-manager. As time progresses and system-manager grows in popularity I could start recommending that too.

How do I actually update home-manager?
$ home-manager --version 23.05 $ nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/release-23.11.tar.gz home-manager $ nix-channel --update $ nix-shell '' -A install [...] All done!

An Overview of Nix in Practice
> Channels are, AFAIU, a reference to some point-in-time/commit/version of nixpkgs
It's not specifically nixpkgs, but any Nix code generally.
Per the Nix manual[0]:
> Channels are a mechanism for referencing remote Nix expressions and conveniently retrieving their latest version.
e.g. home-manager's suggested channel is just the github tarball for the relevant branch[1]:
nix-channel --add https://github.com/nix-community/home-manager/archive/master.tar.gz home-manager

Need help on home manager neovim config
I'm using flakes and home manager and not really sure how to go about managing my neovim configuration. I've read through some other posts, github issues, and various articles trying to suss out a good way to do this. Reading through other people's configs and posts was somewhat helpful but there is a lot going on I don't understand and everyone's examples I've seen vary wildly.

I want to like NixOS but... I can't and I need some help
I can't answer all your questions, but home-manager does have a dconf module that would probably be better to use than that external tool. Everything inside the options block are the things you can pass to the dconf module.
