I was just pointing out that the “you can’t tinker with immutable distros” thing is inaccurate. I am relatively new to Linux, so its not as big of a deal for me to adjust and learn how it works. But yeah it’s different and there is a learning curve so if you’ve been using non-immutable distros for a long time, then it probably isn’t worth re-learning a bunch of shit.
I kinda hope one day there is a “easy mode” Immutable distro, or perhaps atleast some kind of point-and-click GUI tools for managing something like flakes on a NixOS like system. I love the idea behind NixOS, but don’t want to learn a new programming language just to configure my system. It’ll get easier in the future I suppose. And when it does, I’ll be here for it.
Obviously Bazzite is trying to be more beginner friendly which is cool, but it’s still quite a complicated system underneath the limited GUI options.
