I remember that thr kernel didn't had performance flags set and used, making NixOS not a nice Gaming platform.

Is this true? Can I fix it for myself easily?

Easily? I've heard it's really time consuming to get it exactly how you like it but the same could be said about a lot of distros.

Are you talking about that vm.max_memory something?
Not sure how you'd change it in Nix exactly, but should be simple enough.

Been gaming on nixos for a month or two and haven't had any issues AFAICT

I never said it wont have issues. Just a few less FPS without noticing.
