Universal Blue project looks more promising honestly (Aurora & Bazzite distros). Not only does it have KDE and is more popular, but it is also directly based on Fedora Atomic. Meaning if the project gets abandoned you can just rebase your system onto Fedora and drop the Aurora/Bazzite changes without having to reinstall your OS. This is very valuable when it comes to these "small team of volunteers" projects. Still, as someone who loves immutable systems I want VanillaOS to succeed.

That‘s just irresponsible. What are you going to do if the 4 people this project relies on to exist get hit by a bus? Transition your customer machines to Debian Sid which this is based on? Or what if they do poor quality control? You have no control over when updates are pushed to customers, wouldn’t you want to internally test updates before pushing them to customers? Just built your own OCI images at GitHub based on an actual stable distribution channel like fedora. Ublue for example has templates that you can easily adjust, add your own apps to and actually test before pushing them to customers. I’d use use the oldstable Fedora(current version - 1), that still gets security fixes but has all actual bugs fixed and will give you a smooth transition to newer versions. You also get to pick the desktop environment. I wouldn’t choose gnome, your customers will pimp it via extensions to get a desktop they are used to and yell at you when the extensions break due to updates, which they will.

I do understand why it works like this but I'm hoping one day it is easier and we could install anything without all the work around. I am just a consumer of Linux, I don't use it for coding or anything like that. I am a half convert from windows. I feel that if there were a distro that would, out of the box, would just install anything without the extra steps Linux would grow and become a great OS that could really contend with mac and windows. I'm sorry if this doesn't make sense I just know that windows converts sometimes run into these issues. I myself like to tinker and will give anything a try. I'm just speaking for those out there that just want out of the box ease. I could have easily been someone like that.

I actually think that VanillaOS is a worthy consideration for new Linux users and non-tech-savvy individuals (especially for users with basic needs who can live completely off of the web browser, Flatpaks, and Android APKs). The "smart updates" feature strikes me as a big selling point for regular users who dont want to deal with managing system updates themselves (but also don't want to be interrupted by automatic updates [yes, I know offline updates exist, but they are still an inferior solution]), and the A/B partition scheme is a simple but fantastic way to ensure that a broken update doesn't leave them stranded (as long as it's easy/intuitive to boot into the inactive slot). VanillaOS is exactly the kind of distro I'd want to put on our family computer, so if it turns out to be as solid as I hope it is, that might be what I do when Windows 10 gets discontinued.

I guess OpenSUSE erasure is real... Tinfoil hat off, Vanilla looks really good! I disagree with one thing tho., imo immutable linux distributions are even better for unsophisticated linux users than for advanced ones, simply because of how much they reduce the odds of the user breaking things. Of course there is a spectrum, and I 100% agree BlendOS is sort of "for advanced users only", but Vanilla and Aeon and EasyOS are perfectly usable without even knowing what Linux is. After all, that is the whole idea behind Immutable OSs, just take the OS out from the equation, which is why Chrome OS and the Steam Deck can be shipped *en masse* being sold to end users.

Makes me wish I had a third machine to test this! Still haven't felt comfortable jumping to an immutable distro, and would love to be on Debian for third-party software support.

11:13 I don't get why it's better. Distrobox can also export apps as a .desktop file which are findable by your app launcher of choice

Thanks for looking into this release, interesting, but I prefer a regular system with snapshots like Fedora on Btrfs with Snapper.

"Cowardice is our way" Reminds me of that time when a Google search for "French military victories" resulted in the suggestion "Did you mean French military defeats?"

you know, I wish we saw more of an A/B slot system on pc, some android phones do it (google pixel for example) do it and like, it's a seamless update, no need to stay on an updating screen without being able to use your phone

What extension do you use to record Gnome? The built-in one doesn't have audio. Do you just record separately and sync it up?

Immutable desktops is a really good concept that allows seasoned Linux users distro hop and even allow software developers test packages on multiple distros before actually deploying them, and I must say Vanilla OS 2 looks like it might do it better than any of Fedora's immutable desktops, which I once tried to get installed on my laptop but failed.

What was the issue?

Awesome video, thanks! If his distro gave us the option to use Plasma it would be amazing.

The concept is very interesting but I'd say just prepare a stable distro like Debian with distrobox set up so everyone can use it and go for Flatpaks on the _host_ system and you have pretty much a solid foundation of what could actually be good. Actually I'd be interested in exactly that but I believe Distrobox doesn't work on Debian Stable, does it?
