Hacking Anything with GNU Guix
You can do a pivot_root based install of Guix: https://github.com/pjotrp/guix-notes/blob/master/GUIX-NO-ROO...
- Can GUIX be installed into $HOME?

The Determinate Nix Installer
If you install it from the community RPM installer, it works as they have SELinux support added: https://github.com/nix-community/nix-installers

nix won´t install on Fedora 37
I tried to install the Nix package manager on my Fedora 37 machine. Having read about some issues with installing Nix with the install script on Fedora and other OS, using Selinux, I chose install via "nix-installers" rpm-packe (https://github.com/nix-community/nix-installers/issues/16). Unfortunately, I get warnings about created uids throughout the install process not being in the scope of `SYS_UID_MAX 999`. Furthermore, after rebooting the computer, I end up with a flickering black screen instead of on my (Gnome) Desktop environment.

how do you get selinux to work with nix without disabling it?
Looks like you already found u/adisbladis legacy installers and opened a feature request for Silverblue support. Your best bet would be to start learning how SELinux policies work and see if you can adapt those for the way that you've set up Silverblue, or to see if you can modify the RPM builder to accommodate Silverblue by putting the Nix store under /var and bind mounting it onto /nix, like those other instructions floating around do.

I would like to see more cli apps avaliable as flatpaks
There's work to add nix to silverblue via community packaging: https://github.com/nix-community/nix-installers/pull/8

Hacking Anything with GNU Guix
I think nonguix also uses equivalent machinery for its Steam package: https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix/-/blob/master/nongnu/pack...
Maybe there are docs on repurposing that someone more familiar with nonguix can point to.
Apparently there is an rpm-ostree-friendly RPM build of Nix that can be used to install Nix on Silverblue as well: https://github.com/nix-community/nix-installers/pull/8
It includes some code to get around the group/user management quirks that some other commenters have noted b0rked the Guix installer, so perhaps it gives an outline of how to install Guix on Silverblue for a hacker who'd like to try it :)
