JakenVeina, to linux in Bazzite: An immutable Fedora-based OS optimized for gaming on any device, from desktops to laptops to the Steam Deck

What the hell is an immutable OS?

baconicsynergy,

Immutable is awesome. The user instead uses flatpak, snap, and/or nix to install their packages and apps. If you want a mutable environment, you can use containers and their many system integration tools like distrobox.The system has rollback functionality thanks to ostree, abroot, or similar technologies, so in case an update goes awry, you can roll back to a previous working image. Update anxiety no longer exists for me

I recently put the nvidia variant of ublue-os on my work laptop, which has Optimus graphics. Couldn’t be happier.

It’s great to see these variants popping up! I really think ostree may be the future for desktop Linux, and not even very far away.

theshatterstone54,

I kinda hope not, to be honest. Unless there could be an easy way to get tiling window managers working. It’s easy on NixOS, another immutable distro, but it’s definitely not as easy on something like Silverblue.
