Time for some emails about where I hope the Guile and Guix communities will go, hopefully in an energy-building way.

@cwebber I have been wanting to try out a Guix install for some time now. It sounds really cool from what I've read. The idea of rollbacks is really sweet.

Only thing stopping me really is most howtos for obscure stuff doesnt have a guix writeup yet. The nice thing about Archlinux is that it is minimalist AND is so popular there is an explanation on how to fix or do almost anything.

Maybe ill try it out on one of my single board computers where having rollbacks would be really useful...

@freemo @cwebber

The arch wiki is a thing of beauty.

It is so useful regardless of your distro.

(And I think guix has some neat features, but they don't point to the guix compatible non-free repository, and unfortunately many people still will likely need some non-free firmware.

It truly is. I often use it when im on debian or ubuntu when i dont need information that is terribly specific to the distro.
