Does anyone know if the NixOS packages are safer from these types of attacks? As far as I know many packages are missing maintainers.
I’ve used Arch on and off since around 2006 or so. I’ve used most distributions, including Gentoo, and in recent years things like Debian and atomic Fedora. I’ve settled for NixOS now though and I don’t see it changing unless a better declarative OS/language comes along (Guix is a good contender with its Scheme).
