Dunno how much more drama nixos will need to have a substantial amount of people just move to a fork. Aux exists, but I think it's dead. It could be revived if more people joined though.

I’m hoping NixOS figures out these inevitable growing pains. The problem they’re having has a ton to do with flakes and Eelco not wanting to accept the community’s pushback on this feature. So, he implemented the feature in his “upstream” project.
I use it all the time but I’m told it is unstable.
