Why you don't need flake-utils
My server's repo and my dotfiles both use flake-parts, and you can do a github-grep to look for more.

NixOS: Creating the same system across multiple devices
For example these are my shared files between systems: https://github.com/viperML/dotfiles/tree/master/modules and host-specific config https://github.com/viperML/dotfiles/tree/master/hosts/gen6

Configuring Channels Passed to _module.args of a Flake without Flake-Utils-Plus?
i have no idea why its like this in the first place, since i largely followed the flake here and only really rebuilt like this recently.

Why you don't need flake-utils
Pinning can be done without flakes, be it manually or with codegen (nvfetcher)

Accessing contents of non-flake repo input to a flake?
You should instead use the regular fetchGit, fetchFromGitHub etc. fetchers in fairly vanilla code, and yes, that often means dealing with checksums in some form. If you truly just want to yeet the latest revision into place no matter what it is, there are ways to automate that still, such as berberman/nvfetcher, or Mic92/nix-update.

Will you move from Packer to Lazy ?
Yes, however one downside is that, afaik, the inputs are downloaded eagerly, not lazily. Alternatively there are things like nix-update and nvfetcher.

Nix VSCode Marketplace
The fetcher for this is https://github.com/berberman/nvfetcher. And if you want to simply map all the sources to extension packes, you could use http://github.com/divnix/devos-ext-lib and follow the readme. This is how I do it.

Nix flake of Vim/Neovim plugins, part of them are auto-generated from Awesome Neovim
It has support for passthru so you can expose description, homepage and other meta attributes. You (currently) can't directly pass a attribute set to the nix source because nvfetcher is using string interpolation to generate it, so only string is allowed. There is a tracking issue for this: github.com/berberman/nvfetcher/issues/40. For now, you can use mapAttrs sources (sources = import ./_sources/generated.nix { inherit (final) fetchurl fetchgit fetchFromGitHub; }) to generate the appropriate meta from passthru.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing dotfiles and nvfetcher you can also consider the following projects:
neoinfra - Infrastucture as code
flake-awesome-neovim-plugins - Nix flake of Awesome Neovim plugins
dotnix - nix stuff
openvsx - An open-source registry for VS Code extensions
nix-config - :space_invader: NixOS configuration
devos-ext-lib - A kick ass library to dominate your Extensions (with DevOS).
flake-parts - ❄️ Simplify Nix Flakes with the module system
LazyVim - Neovim config for the lazy
nixos-configuration
commander-cli - A simple library I wrote to allow me to quickly and easily construct command line interfaces.
