Seems like this distro is getting a lot of traction recently. Has anyone tried it? Is it any good?

Each package creates a new generation of your operating system. One of the heaviest pains in using a rolling distro is that one day some core part of your system comes crashing down. You can roll back to previous version on a whim.
Each user has it’s own manager, so you can have multiple versions of a same library. It is not containerized software (docker), so you do get those native speeds. Biggest problem is the disk space use, since unless no one uses a package, you can’t garbage collect it.
Other beauty is since the installation is based on a config file it’s trivial to have the full setup on multiple devices. (Much easier than hand rolled installation shell script)
Cool, that sounds really useful! I might have to try it out.
