Having deadnix as a transitive input breaks your flake

Introduced in: dd04c4b

error: input 'nix-html/deadnix/fenix/nixpkgs' follows a non-existent input 'deadnix/nixpkgs'

It is a bug in nix that has been fixed in master, but there's no telling how long it'll be before that makes it into nix stable. Removing the follows fixes the issue.

Thanks for the report.

Would it help to alternatively add nixpkgs as an explicit input? If so, which branch?

I definitely think it would be a good idea to add nixpkgs as an explicit input, but I just tested it and it does not fix the problem. Regarding what branch, nixpkgs-unstable should be fine. You can also go

nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/f23965369e2d3123b370cc3ba03be835b1e2f5db";

if you'd like to keep it the same as it is now.
