Wouldn't worry about Boost, it's a standard that's not going anywhere. Not sure how well NX1 stands up compared to better 11/12 speed groupsets or reliable 10sp.
Other options include the Marin Pine Mountain and Genesis Tarn or Longitude.

Kona Unit 2017? Reynolds 520 tubing, around £600 if any left. Comes as singlespeed but if you shop around you could get an 11 speed XT mech. chain, shifter and cassette for £100.
Rims and tyres are tubeless ready.

Can anyone reccommend me a rigid hardtail mountainbike for someone who wants to get into some dirt-road touring and bikepacking around Denmark and Sweden?
Priorities:
I have looked at the Sonder Frontier as an option, but I am unsure if the boost hub spacing is going to be a pain further down the road. Apart from that it ticks a lot of boxes, at a bearable price.
