Just remember that NixOS is only for personal and hobby use cases, as it is maintained by a large community of people that can ship any code they want without review, anchored on the honor system. Think wikipedia anons managing your browser and password manager.

If you want high supply chain security appropriate for production use, it is a lot more work that a lot fewer people are willing to do, which means far fewer packages. Though probably the packages you need for a server or build system or minimalist workstation.

See https://stagex.tools for contrast.
