      You should try NixOS, it’s pretty cool.

            That’s old and unmaintained.
            You should switch to RebeccaBlackOS

              Maybe. I’m busy right now.

              I might do it later. Maybe I’ll do it on

          Real talk, I want to try Guix but I have not successfully installed it on any hardware, including VMs. This includes with nonguix for proprietary drivers and stuff. I can never get past install, it always just craps out on some substitution thing. Am I just stupid?

            So what happens, does it just not boot? Any error messages?

      i unfortunately using kinoite for my desktop and Debian for my servers. I am not totally in love with kinoite but I don’t dislike it enough to change back to regular fedora.

        Redox will be finished before Hurd becomes a thing.
