I knew Nix came before NixOS but was interested in both for the possibility of managing servers. I'd have made significantly less progress starting from Nix.

I can see how Guile would be an improvement over the Nix language, but have tapped out my patience on related topics for a while.

Hi,

I hope you took no offense by my comment. I tried nixos and failed to get what I want from it then went back to archlinux. But I understand how it's full of ambiguity (that's why I got back into familiar territory)

Maybe I'll make an article about guixsd and you'll read:p
