From what I gather, if you like tinkering and compiling and installing random weird apps then immutable can be a serious pain in the ass like I discovered.

That's really cool to hear! I had a bad Fedora experience on my surface pro 4, it was silverblue - an immutable distro. Not a great start, so I think I'll be giving it another shot in it's natural glory some time this year.

Wasn't about that at all. Any DNF action took a lightyear... man just typing out those long commands (very hard to remember coming from apt) nevermind the much crazier wait time. Using toolbox for dev environments to compile things was a total nightmare. I'm sure there's a scenario where it's ideal, that was certainly not my situation.

I used an immutable fedora on my surface pro 4, I wanted to shoot myself in the face every time I had to install anything. I'm good on that for the rest of my natural life.

Amen brother. I'm really hoping a lot of these gotchas get ironed out in some way as more people start choosing Linux over windows. I would be really happy to see some smoother experiences in the coming year or years. Don't get me wrong, things are a bajillion times better than ten years ago, but there's still a ways to go yet.

Imagine what it would feel like to lose a full 128 terabyte SD card. Just let that simmer in your thoughts for a moment.

Literally just obsoleted my 2 week old CSS hack haha. Another useless GitHub project on my account. https://github.com/barelyelectric/firefox-csshacks
