    This a plea for help: is there any other distro that does immutability like nix without the configurstion of nixos. I love nix but its just so complicated. When something breaks i spend half an hour just to fix some small problem because i have to get the config then rebuild then test, etc. Idk if i was the one making nixos how would i fix it tho. Also its too teminal based for most people.

      There’s the WIP NixOS-based SnowflakeOS that aims to make NixOS approachable for mere mortals but that’s still declarative configuration and of course still NixOS under the hood.

      There’s a bunch of immutable distros out there that use OStree or some other imperatively managed snapshotting mechanism such as Fedora Silverblue or VanillaOS.
