Trying out Guix for the first time! Waiting for packages to download.

I’m a long time Arch user. Any tips?!

I’ve heard there aren’t as many packages for Guix as other distros, but I was thinking Flatpak and distrobox will help bridge the gap for me.

    I want to love Guix (both the package manager and the distro). I want to love Scheme. But I can never find any good tutorials for Scheme and using it with Guix. The GNU documentation is more of a reference than a tutorial. I use Emacs on the daily, and I just can’t get into Scheme.

      Do you find that Elisp and Scheme are too different? I don’t know either, so they look almost the same to me.
