One of the package I maintain (sigil) depends on qt6.qtwebengine, which was broken on darwin. However, fixes (NixOS/nixpkgs#423843 NixOS/nixpkgs#424029 NixOS/nixpkgs#424034) require rebuilding qt6.qtwebengine which takes too long to run locally (~3 hours) and won't even run to complete on GitHub Actions (>6 hours), making it hard to test changes.

As a darwin maintainer, I also test PRs and fix build failures on darwin, so having access to community builders could be helpful.

I've joined https://matrix.to/#/#nix-community:nixos.org.

I can vouch for @Prince213. I am one of Nixpkgs committers. I have worked with him on Nixpkgs PRs and we have also talked privately in DMs. His contributions are of high quality. I believe giving him access to community builders is good for nix community.
