    Immutable distros are currently the flavor of the month and it’s basically just that. Bazzite is just a worse cachyOS. But because it’s immutable it’s the flavor of the month and therefore it’s the hype new thing.

    Everyone loves the hype new thing. Even though in all realistic aspects, it’s more overly complicated. It’s more prone to causing issues for new users. It’s less proven.

    There’s a good argument to be made that the project might just end up imploding in a year or two and dying out and f****** over all these new users who are flocking to it because of rampant suggestions.

    Is also the general issue of Fedora and its family being prone to breaking itself from early adoption of new ideas. People love to give Arch s*** but Fedora tends to be the one that actually implodes itself for low-skilled users.

    Got to love flavor of the month

      Could you make this argument?

        It’s nonsense you can just use one command to swap from bazzite to kinoite if it does, it’s very easy and low effort to distro hop on fedora atomic based distros

        And half of the project is mostly just automated package update pulls and compiling them into images

        No they can’t, they can only say “flavor of the month” nonstop until another parrot catches it and repeats it

        I can counter argument their non-existing argument, if bazzite dies tomorrow you are free to rebase to any other Fedora Atomic distro
