No it is not. Please don't spread that nonsense.
Tons of packages don't work. Many are not maintained. Debugging packages are a huge pain.
I've never had so much problems on any distro related to packages as on nixos.
Which is expected! Nixos is novel and a niche, few develop for it and tons of stuff break because assumptions that work on all other distros don't.
But please don't try to give people the idea that nixos package situation is great or even good. It is only hurting the cause.
