   I'm finally putting together a list of "getting started with #nixos" videos aimed at beginners to Nix.

   I'd love any feedback, positive or negative on this!

     AFAIR, Guix where never "switiching langugage" it was written from the beginning in Guile Scheme. However, the build daemon is a fork of nix build daemon indeed. There is a project for writing bug-for-bug compatible build daemon in Guile, but it's very much WIP.

     @khronos @codemonkeymike Yes. Guix forked nix and quickly diverged a ton by switching language and away from systemd. Same base principles still ofc.

     They're nix compatible though - which one would need for accessing any non-FOSS software (guix is gnu).

     @codemonkeymike What is the difference in this and #guix I believe it is? Don't they have a lot in common if my memory serves me right?
