Very excited for the final release. This might replace Fedora as my daily driver. :)
Dude same! I've been looking into immutable distros and I tried fedora silverblue but this seems better. I just bought a used PC to try it out just haven't had the time yet

Why over-complicated? I'm genuinely curious, as I think it sounds pretty cool that you can install apps from different package managers in containers, but export them to use them in your main environment.

Technically, only
aptexists, as per Debian. The filesystem is ext4 but with two system partitions, so that you:- have one backup partition
- can install updates to the unused partition for seemless and atomic updates
- Be immutable whilst offering easy updates
It gets compared to NixOS because NixOS is also an immutable distribution and the package manager is equally as flexible as
apx(even thoapxalso allows you to use nix)Multiple package managers outside of
apt/dpkgfrom Debian get managed automatically using theapxtool, only if you wish to use it. Otherwise, for the desktop they promote the use of Flatpaks or AppImages.deleted by creator
When you're on A, updates go to B. When you're on B, updates go to A.
After an update, a reboot will switch slots.
Looks bad in comparison with Silverblue where I can pin many previous version. Thanks to OSTree, you can downgrade to any point in the history or even switch back to an older release.
