I’d like to settle on a distro, but none of them seem to click for me. I want stability more than anything, but I also value having the latest updates (I know, kind of incompatible).

I have tested Pop!_Os, Arch Linux, Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu. Arch and Pop being the two that I enjoyed the most and seemed the most stable all along… I am somewhat interested in testing NixOS although the learning curve seems a bit steep and it’s holding me back a bit.

What are you using as your daily drive? Would you recommend it to another user? Why? Why not?

    An immutable OS with flatpak, snap or appimage :

    Fedora silverblue, nixos, vanilla os, guix, steam deck…

    While there is still lot limitation using only flatpak, snap or appimage, i believe that in the next decade they will slowly grow and end up that packaging nightmare.

    So we can have an OS up to date, latest app without worrying any breakage. But i’m not well versed and dunno if people and dev will follow that road.

    I think it’s time to ditch apt, dnf, rpm, aur. I imagine it would ease dev work but i’m not sure.
