Immutable Linux distros sound terrible on paper, but a month of Silverblue proved me wrong
Quoting: Immutable Linux distros sound terrible on paper, but a month of Silverblue proved me wrong —
XDA logo Here is a fact-based summary of the story contents:
I remember when I first learned about immutable distros. I'm a big fan of Fedora operating systems, and one day, I decided to check out all the spins you can download. One of them was Fedora Silverblue, the immutable GNOME version of the operating system. I had no idea what an immutable OS was, and the more I researched what they were, the more convinced I was that they were a flat downgrade to a mutable one.
So, of course, I had to see what the fuss was about. I gave Silverblue a spin, and while all of the downsides were just as I imagined them, navigating around them was far easier than I expected. Not only that, but I actually came around to love immutable distros and what they stand for.
