1·4 months agoIt never proposed GNU Guix to me. Quite unfortunate, that’s my daily driver and I love it.
I do use it, as it’s the default kernel of the GNU Guix distro which I use daily.
The main drawbacks is that it forces you to choose your hardware wisely, using e.g. h-node.org to be sure it’s compatible. Otherwise, this is quite exactly the same kernel, just really free as in freedom.
Using GNU Guix to build can solve the “difficult to install” issue and also help with dependency management, however compilation time can’t be avoided. Advantages remain, however, thanks to package transformation options!
