Neat. The more, the merrier.
If anyone wants to work through SICP in the original way, you can get MIT Scheme, and run it on some computers.
sudo apt install mit-scheme
Some of us added support to DrRacket, for working through SICP that way (though if you already know how to use an editor, etc., you might prefer to just run MIT Scheme): https://docs.racket-lang.org/sicp-manual/

I have been using #lang sicp in Racket to go through (most of) SICP -- and it's been mostly a smooth ride. DrRacket can get very slow on Linux, so eventually I switched back to vim+terminal once exercises started to require larger amounts of code.
