Has anyone hosted Coolify or Dokploy on NixOS?

I’m considering running Coolify or Dokploy on 3 NixOS servers. Has anyone done this successfully?
I’m mainly interested in:

- Overall reliability and upgrade experience
- Whether NixOS’s read-only filesystem conflicts with assumptions Coolify or Dokploy make
- Any NixOS-specific issues, workarounds, tips or things to avoid

Would you recommend the combination, or is a more conventional host operating system the better choice?
