   The #guix survey also showed that our users are knowledgeable #Linux people. Almost 50% are experts/advanced and 47% are intermediate!

   A lot of the attraction is the #nix value of declarative configuration and reproducibility. Users also identified that Scheme, Guile and Lisp are cool! Perhaps the overlap of two different communities! That was my path from #clojure and #ubuntu /#debian

   See Q1 in the post:

     in reply to

     @futurile I would love to reach out to the beginner/explorer type, for good.

     After all, that’s the whole point of the “practical user freedom” stance, which led to the overall design and even to the way some of the documentation is written.

     Probably we need more in the way of popular education?
