    Guix is amazing and what I use for everything, but apart from basic language issues I'm don't find it any easier than Nix.

    How did you make Guix work for you? Every time I've tried to use it, it was terrible (90 minutes for reconfigure and required internet access, just to remove GNOME).

    Guix is lovely but it has a lot fewer packages and a few of its own quirks too. It's still on my list to test again when I get some time, though.

    Does guix even use git? Are they still on cvs and mailing lists?
