I dispute the needlessly part. NixOS unstable has very new packages, do you're getting some fresh updates before some other packaging systems.
Is it less "efficient" than waiting for major versions? Of course. But I'm willing to run an update in the background on my desktop to get that new software.
For me, you can't separate those two things. I want an online identity. I don't want to switch servers because of whatever reason and have to import bookmarks. I want my app to keep track of my subscriptions and just give me my replies/messages. I don't want to care whether I'm on lemmy.ml or whatever
I think the verdict is NixOS is perfect for desktops, since you probably don't care about data or compiling everything or slight inefficiencies
