That would be Ubuntu and Docker. With Guix you can set everything for under a config.scm file in a reproducible way, you can even export a guix recipe as a Docker container, appimage or even as a standalone package for non-guix systems. That's unvaluable for scientific environments where the contrainsts must be set inmutable and unchanging.
But keep bitching about obsolete barely-GNU/Linux distros (the don't even use Linux-Libre) made to copycat NT with the registry, svchost.exe, MSI packages, DISM. (Gnome/OSTree/SystemD/Flatpak). Aka IBM's attempt to pick up RedHat and create another AIX but leeching everything from the community.
With Guix you can even crosscompile and export software to Win32 (for instance, Icecat, VLC...) and you don't need to nasty incantations with flatpaks.
If you want to live in 1993, go on. I already moved past Unix with 9front (my main machine, a n270 netbook, I code in C for expersite, rc/AWK for automation and EForth for fun) and Guix (sadly non-Guix because of wireless until I can afford a compatible laptop with ath9k and Intel).
9front it's my 'brain detox' machine, it's not Unix, it's even simpler than Unix. No wayland, no flatpak, no crap. Build once, run it again as it's a static binary. Guix it's to deal with corporate crap because of $JOB. You know, today they requiere docker and similar crap and with a guix environment I'm free to deploy at home everything at want.
For Go code I can just use 9front modulo some expecial cases (Yggdrasil-go needs a tun/tap interface, but with 9front you can just open() /net/ether/ files and you are free to inject whatever you want.
