I wholeheartedly believe immutable distros like this are the future of desktop linux, even canonical is making a desktop version of their immutable IoT ubuntu

agreed 💙 i have a few installs of fedora silverblue and it's awesome

I tried it for a time but had a few annoyances here and there. The need to reboot everytime I wanted to install something got to me a bit. Eventually went back to normal Fedora, though this was on my work laptop, for a home device I wholeheartedly agree.

Nice! Friendly distros are nice thing to have, i'll give it a try in libvirt when I can!

Looks great! I'm currently on standard Fedora KDE, but will probably switch to this next time I reinstall.

I am absolutely going to try it. I like the idea of Silverblue but I wanted something KDE-based out of the box.
