@lrvick Hi! I’m not sure what the “GNU way of doing things” is but Guix has a long track record regarding #bootstrapping and #ReproducibleBuilds and is used in production:
https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/tags/bootstrapping/

(The “like no distro before it” punchline on the stagex home page is… questionable.)

That said, it’s good news that more distros are joining Guix and live-bootstrap on this journey!

@civodul @rekahsoft I was not close to the website redesign other than the technical content, but I agree with you that is an overly strong statement and will make sure that is reworded soon.

As far as the "GNU way of doing things" I should have used less dismissive language here. After all GNU got us here!

I suppose I mean a very strong preference for GNU tools, even if other FOSS solutions are technically superior in the ways most people (at least in my circles) care about.
