This is the exact way I feel about Gnu Guix_SD

Hello, Fellow Guix-SD user.

Doesn’t have dark mode == useless

which is why I’ll never give my money to them, regardless of how cheap and featureful their devices are.

< love to see this guy’s head on a pike.

Find different channels and substitute servers or create your own

Have you heard of substitutes? They get the job done.

https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/

Check out how to use them in the manual above.

You have to setup a Nix service and do some symlink-ing

https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Miscellaneous-Services.html

personally I like Arch first and foremost because I can (and do) have a local repo by rsyncing a rotation of mirrors couple of times a week.

Are these mirrors for prebuilt packages? If not, you should be able to pull from other channels, create your own channel and include all your packages while building them locally.

Also, welcome to Guix System Distribution, I hope you stick around

Let’s say I’m working on a project that requires Go, Node, maybe some C library, and GNU Make. Seems like I would be able to use guix shell for this, right? Great.

Iirc guix shell is for one off package or programs you want to test, say you want to quickly format a drive to exfat or so, when you exit the sub-shell, the installed packages are discarded

guix shell containers would work best for your scenario but I have little experience with them

Size and gnome/GTK dependencies are main reasons why I don’t use Flatpaks (I have nothing against gnome though, it just pulls in too much and KDE is worse in this regards, which is why I use Sway and River)

You can try deleting old profiles and then garbage-collect the installation, only the last generation will remain

You can try deleting old profiles and then garbage-collect the installation, only the last generation will remain and you’d get your space back.

I’m just seeing your comment after I recommended Guix, that I could read and understand Guile Scheme is what made me hop away from NixOS, the nixlang is an ungrokable mess
