Hi Benjamin,

I would recommend to migrate to a new Guix server instead and use your
DNS or other configuration methods to coordinate between the two. That's
what I did, from Debian stable, about a year and a half ago.

The Guix part was very painful for me, but I turned off the Debian
server after four weeks. I am still learning about Guix but have reached
a point where I am comfortable trying to contribute.

Guix is an amazing package manager (and distribution) that runs much
more stable than anything I've used in the past. The learning curve is
brutal but was totally worth it!

IRC is your friend.

Kind regards
Felix
