Nix – A One Pager
Their software freedom policy seems to be similar to Debian. All free by default, allow separate nonfree addon. In the case of Guix you can find that here: https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix .

Write Guix package definitions in a breeze: Introducing Guix Packager
The GUIX community has a non-free package repo, you just add it as a GUIX channel and problem solved:

My Void experience, so you don't have to
Yes, being a GNU project Guix has a strict free software only policy. The biggest channel (repo) with proprietary stuff for Guix is called nonguix. It has the vanilla kernel, Nvidia drivers and a number of other proprietary packages including Steam, Chrome and the like. I don't know what the state of ZFS on Guix is though as I don't care for it myself, but I can see why its inclusion would be questioned with regards to licensing.

Differences between nixos and guix?
Since Guix is a GNU project, it doesn't support proprietary software (Steam, Discord, Zoom...). Third-party repos are available for it.

I'm not fond of nix syntax, how difficult will it be to switch to guix
There's a git lab repo for non-free/libre software that you can add as a channel when installing. I used the following guide that shows you how to do this.

Invalid Field Specifier
I'm trying to enable substitues for nonguix. I added the code snippet from the nonguix website to my system.scm file per the instructions. When I try to reconfigure I get the following error:

Framework's software and firmware have been a mess, but it's working on them
I think the SD module won't be able to have the card flush, as the modules are only and SD cards are 32mm long, and you need some PCB space for the socket cage and the USB-C on the other side. The retrofit PCB outline they provide is only 26.9mm from front edge to back edge, so an SD card will stick out a little bit.
So perhaps they decided to go for the one that lets users have the card flush for use like an expansion bay as well as for data transfer to/from devices.

Microsoft starts testing ads in the Windows 11 Start menu
There are many laptops and desktops that fit the bill.
Frame.work: https://frame.work/

System76: https://system76.com/laptops
Kubuntu Focus: https://kfocus.org/land/business
I am sure there are more, this is only what I have found in less than 5 minutes of searching.
- Which Windows/Linux laptop maker do you like the most?

The Gazelle Laptops are the biggest POS
I'll buy a frame.work long before I touch system76. Their prices are too high for the general feedback I keep seeing on the quality control. I'm not spending 3k+ to be out a laptop until support responds. Especially, considering they still don't make these in house..

That feeling when you are unboxing a flagship keyboard from a major brand in 2023 and find out it uses micro-USB #smh
No they didn't, companies just mostly gave up on it.

A Framework Laptop (https://frame.work)
- Is there anything out there that has changed, FOR THE BETTER?

1080p 7840U laptop
You could get a Framework 13 which comes with your choice of a 7840U or 7640U and a Radeon 780M iGPU. They do officially support Linux, and you don't have to pay for a Windows license, if you go the DIY option and chose to not get a Windows license.

ELI5: What makes a consumer laptop in 2023 better than one in 2018?
Take a look at the Framework laptops. They're 100% modular so if stuff like that goes bad you can simply order the replacement part and do it yourself. I'm using a desktop right now but Ithink my next laptop is gonna be a framework.

Conflicting information from Framework on my preorder
a couple of days ago I tried to order a Framework laptop (13 inch AMD). I chose to create an account during the checkout process and provided my email address. After entering my shipping details, I authorized the transfer of the deposit fee via Giropay. The deposit was deducted from my bank account but when I was sent back to the frame.work website I was greeted by an error message. Unfortunately I could neither complete the checkout process nor continue my account registration.
