Yeah it’s sad to see the state of the community. Personally it wasn’t a reason for me to leave though. I used Void in the past and started liking runit, so now i like to go off the beaten path when it comes to init systems. It’s not very feasible to use NixOS without systemd though, apart from a few small projects that aren’t well tested and barely have documentation. Initially i wanted to stick to runit, but recently i finally decided to give guix and shepherd a go. So far i do actually like that shepherd is a little less minimal compared to runit, and actually has more features baked in, like support for one-shot services, timers, and being able to make services depend on each other. I finally installed it on bare metal yesterday, but i still need to work on my config a bit.
I’m on Void right now, but am i still a chad if i switch to GNU Guix? I’m assuming yes because NixOS is also in the chad tier 🗿
More of a chad since NixOS has fascism problem

Yes, guix should be in there. Not sure if it was the crippled gnu at the bottom, but belongs in chad level
