@aemogie Hm, it would be neat, though as we currently don't have such a home service for bindfs, it would be necessary to implement it. I guess it would be feasible.

If you need any help, feel free to message me or something.

@aemogie If it helps, I am using a ephemeral root setup too, but made an entire btrfs subvolume for /root. Didn't think too much about it though, I guess the way you're doing it is better, since it's closer to the ideal of also having the minimum unmanaged state as possible.

@aemogie Hey aemogie, I replied you over irc. I guess you wasn't online anymore. Did you manage to mount /root/.cache/guix after user-homes service starts?

@lynn Hey, Lynn, me and @look have achieved your first two goals, maybe you want to take a look at our configs.

Also https://codeberg.config/anemofilia/radix has a more complete version of home-fish-service-type, which allows better declaration of abbreviations, and supports declaring plugins :)

@massa Oi, Humberto, tudo bem? Temos um grupo de telegram do Guix BR (https://t.me/gnu_guix_br), acho que podemos resolver boa parte desses problemas :)

@mafe Hm, I mean, no? Sure using Guix (with free software only) induces some hardware restrictions, but it isn't the same as saying "Guix violates your freedom of hardware choice" because from the the beggining, Guix isn't forcing you to use it, when you choose to use it, you also choose a subset of hardware. But, as long you do not use guix, you could also use any hardware you want, there's your freedom.

I would agree with your statement if there was at least some kind of societal enforcement that obliged you to use Guix, but since there isn't, it really sounds like "Isn't signing a contract, which I don't need to sign, and that imposes me restrictions I don't agree with, restricting my freedom?", uhh, bro, just don't sign it, maybe?

Also, as @mekeor said, you can use the nonguix channel to get the blobbed kernel and other proprietary stuff.

@mafe Also, the fair perspective is that the hardware you would like to use, that doesn't even provides you free software drivers, is the one restricting your freedom of software choice. I'm certain there is no evil intention on a free software project like guix, but I wouldn't be able to say the same thing about intel, nvidia or amd.
