I'm not happy as a #NixOS user because of #NixLang but I'm finding I'm also not really happy as a former #Nix user either.
Anybody want to give me the hard sell on #guix? Do you find the free software licensing requirement to be limiting? Is package availability a problem otherwise?
Or should I give NixOS another shot?
