Here's how I want to use Guix and it is to increase contributor-friendliness of a project, so that the user can simply run a distribution-independent command to install all dependencies without having to hunt for them with `apt` and `dnf` manually.

Unfortunately, Guix itself is not very easy to install, and the instructions are full of rather technical stuff like 'systemd' and 'upstart'.

https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/html_node/Binary-Installation.html

There should be a script like the one Haskell Stack uses:

|curl -sSL https://get.haskellstack.org/ | sh|

IMO supporting this as a use case could really bring popularity to GNU Guix.
