    I like the idea of the fedora immutable distros, but the reliance on flatpak makes me a bit nervous (guess I’m just old-fashioned)… I think some kind of solution that puts a stable system like Debian or immutable fedora with a package manager like Nix might be very good (I know the U-Blue guys have been playing with homebrew?)

      You can still install Nix (package manager) on Atomic, on uBlue, it even comes pre-installed afaik.

      And also, there’s Distrobox, which is totally enough if you prefer package managers over Flatpaks.
      I personally like the “reliance” on Flatpaks. I think it reduces the fragmentation and makes it easier for devs, but that’s just my opinion. Do as you prefer.
