      Yes! And everything is based on hashed source code - this guarantees long-term reproducibility, avoids vendor-lock-in with proprietary binaries and drivers (and that’s why some companies hate it), but above all makes much easier to inspect what is in a package.

        Interesting, unfortunately I still rely on proprietary binaries but I could try it on a secondary device. Reproducibility is one of the reason I chose to learn NixOS.

        Nah, Guix is dead simple to use. I even trained my pet octopus to build Guix packages after it got bored with the underwater piano :)
