Experiences using immutable Linux desktops? - Lemmy.zip
lemmy.zip
I am playing around with Fedora Silverblue and openSUSE Aeon and I really like the painless updates. Still, my daily driver for some years now is Debian, and I have a decent setup via Ansible - everything just works for me. My question is mostly to long term Linux users, which use Linux in a professional context and jumped from a distribution like Fedora, Ubuntu, openSUSE or Debian to NixOS, Silverblue, Aeon etc. What is your experience? How did your workflows change on your immutable Linux distribution? Did you try immutable and went back to a more traditional distribution - why? How long are you running the immutable distribution and what issues and perks did you run into?

Warning: I’m not joking and there’s no way to get out without force quitting Voyager.

      Yes, if it opens in the browser it will be fine. Search for the title

      in the search tab and open it from there. That causes mine to go black, just like from within my feed. But be aware, there’s no way out other than to close the app.

        Didn’t happen for me (v1.15.2 on Android). That’s weird. Have you tried restarting the phone entirely?

          I haven’t. Just the app.
