I don't use NixOS, or have any great interest in it tbh. But this podcast featuring Martin Wimpress (of Linux Mate and other projects) does a decent job of describing what NixOS is, and previews some ongoing and upcoming efforts to address the learning curve and lingo around it.

Great suggestion, I find Martin Wimpress to always be very clear and insightful. I myself listen to most Jupiter Broadcasting podcasts [0]. On their "Linux Unplugged" show [1] they did a NixOS challenge recently. There is an accompanying Matrix channel for noobs which can also be a great resource! See an overview of resources here: [2]. It's a fun community.
