Used that for a while. Probably what I'd use if I wanted a "non-functional" Linux distribution

It's Guix System now, the Guix package manager is already a "Guix System Distribution" because it includes the Guix System command. I'm on Nix now(because my Atheros wifi-card hasn't arrived yet) I like Guix more but wish they just had a substitute for the mainline Linux-kernel on the Nonguix repo , so you wouldn't have to compile it on 90% of hardware configurations.
Learning both is useful since Guix has some outdated packages and Nix has the largest(though largely automated) repo.

I'm using GNOME until I'm comfortable with EXWM. Most of the other Desktop Environments don't contain basic stuff like Night Light and easily togglable Dark Mode(or better yet by sunset/sunrise) or Hover Click. KDE has too many options if I'd want to set up all that or use a more "minimal" DE and install a bunch of external software, I'd just configure a Window Manager/Compositor setup. EXWM is easier to move to, if you're already using Eemacs and have Emacs packages for doing some of that.
