I have *some* gripes with NixOS, but it really is a hassle-free way to manage several machines easily. My most recent discovery is "nixos-rebuild --target-host root@host boot" which lets me apply changes remotely (with some tweaks for aarch64 support even to RPi node). It's much faster than running nixos-rebuild on RPI itself.
I know there's more advanced approaches (nixops et al) but I don't feel like I need them just yet. But good to know it will scale...
