There should be a place where all that is advertised (outside Guix official
channels to avoid conflict when that applies). I'm so clueless personally

You mean like Twitch or YouTube or videocall or something else? Personally with
the AppImage everything was working fine (but I haven't checked everything
possible)
> running on native wayland
What was the workaround/solution? Personally it receives the order to use
WayLand

Last time I messed with channels I've had to maintain a whole version control
system **just** to figure out what wasn't working, took me, idk, months of
maintenance time, weeks of mind time and maybe hours/day of actual time. Maybe
you know a foolproof way or something?

IIRC when I wanted first to use it I tried Toys but found nothing, or maybe it
was for another browser, but pretty sure it was for Zen

Yeah Guix do love that we do things the Guix way, and using a tool to prepare a
binary to be used non-Guix way makes Guix no happy
