I've been thinking the main reason that I'd adopt Guix is to avoid the
systemd ecosystem. The question for me, is whether Guix is mature &
stable enough for production use - vis-a-vis say Gentoo, or building
Linux-from-Scratch, or one of the BSDs (though SmartOS is starting to
look pretty interesting).
