@luj I use #Guix on my X230, and it’s a good daily driver (though I found it a bit slower than #Nix). But I wouldn’t use it on a server, I’m way too used to systemd, haha. Also, there are too many useful NixOS options in nixpkgs that I wouldn’t have the courage to rewrite. I’ve been using it for more than six months now, and I still haven’t found the motivation to contribute a single time to the Guix sources repository…

@luj I mean (sorry for telling you the whole story when you didn’t even ask for it… am I a reply guy?) I installed it in the first place because I was curious about the developer experience, and I found it really interesting just to check out the different CLI, naming choices, and system configuration API. I believe every Nix contributor should give it a try, just because it’s good to see how things could be done differently!
