Oh thank you.

I'll take a look on his channel. I've already installed Guix System by myself a 
year ago. X220 with libreboot, full disk encryption and everything.

The thing is that I don't feel confident. For example what if I wanted to port 
a program to Guix I wouldn't now from where to start. Or how do I learn to 
solve problems by myself. I'm so accustomed to using Debian apt and dpkg and 
over-bloating my system. With Guix I have the freedom of just having what I 
need when I need but I do not know how to do that in every situation.


Thank you.

Greetings,
Marius.
