I use Nix [1] (package manager) to handle my configurations over different systems. There is a somewhat steep learning curve, but it is perfect for my use-cases.

Would that work across Linux/macOS/Windows? Thought Nix was generally for Linux, and usable with caveats on macOS, but no Windows support.

Main selling point of Chezmoi seems to be the "multiple diverse machines" part, which would mean multiple OSes and at least Linux/macOS/Windows.

I use it on Linux and macOS machines. I am afraid there is no support for Windows.
yes same, took me too much time to reap the benefits of nix and home-manager but provisioning the new laptop from my configs was such a breeze
