Does having a flake lock the versions of everything, or just the packages mentioned in the flake? (I assume the latter)

I had a flake for a minute but since I had no idea what I was doing, I was more comfortable moving that stuff into my config.nix.

Nixpkgs is an input which does get locked

Sorry, I'm not certain which way your answer goes. Nixpkgs would be all packages in the system, even if installed in config.nix or home.nix?

Nixpkgs is the nix package repo, and is an input you have to include if you want any packages. So yea

Okay, thank you!
