How do I host a kbin instance on NixOS? (kbin.social)

Hello, does anyone know about how to run a kbin instance on NixOS? Will the steps on https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/wiki#admin-guide (but replacing the apt installs with adding packages in configuration.nix) just work, or is there a better, more reproducible way?

Thanks.

EDIT: I meant a kbin instance, not lemmy.

There's actually an entry in the NixOS manual about enabling Lemmy, but it seems a little short. I would also look at the available Lemmy options and try messing around with those if it doesn't work.

There's also a wiki page about it, but from first glance it seems overly complicated and way more than you should need to do. If the other things don't work you can take a look at this, but I don't think you should need it.
