  • I’ve been hearing a lot about Nix package manager, NixOS, and immutable/atomic Linux distros like BlendOS, VanillaOS, and ChimeraOS with containers and flatpaks on top.

    I may be confused but I think conceptually these distributions are moving towards this idea of reproducibility with a strong immutable core OS for the sake of stability. I can see why this would be perfect for an appliance like the Deck.

    The idea of a rolling distribution where my configuration simply survives upgrades forever … sounds like a dream come true. Is it possible?
