Honestly the one Linux community that has been the nicest and most helpful for me has been the NixOS one...but I don't use the official channels. I tried but like you said it seemed to be anything and everything EXCEPT actual Nix and NixOS.

outside of that your average NixOS user has been a pleasant experience to deal with.

I feel like at some point we have to drop most "official" spaces and instead have a bunch of separate sub-communities all moderated separately, zig-style. The only official communication channels would be PR and issue discussions on Nix and Nixpkgs repos, and they can be tightly moderated to stay on-topic.
