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.

    Sure, but then I’d be downloading every single source ‘package’ and compiling for both x86 and ARM - not exactly feasible. Keeping just the sources might be an option though. The point is to have the whole repo, not just the packages I use, so that in the SHTF scenario I can help others install Arch and any software they may need on their machines. Muhahaha, Arch will prevail 👻
