Debian not working is not a good sign.  Note that without 3d
acceleration, Xorg should work on linux-libre and that it does not
work at all is a bug.  I do not know if someone knowledgeable with
enough time cares enough to fix it though, because it works with
nonfree firmware.

I believe the Guix manual and Guix website should warn about AMD.  I
have opened a bug:
