They never mentioned no immutability. They wanted stable.
I’ve had zero issues, never had to ostree a single thing, its absolutely fine for daily use
I'm a long time Linux user since 2000 or 2001. Started on Mandrake lol. Used RedHat Linux in school too. Then moved to Ubuntu in 2004 and stuck around with them ever since.
I compiled my own Linux kernel to include specific modules for special features on my graphics card back then, like the RCA video input and output. Or for connecting to the internet on DSL. Man, I had a lot of free time back then.
I also worked at Xandros where I build the Linux OS for the Asus Eee PC. Those little 7in and 9in netbook laptops back in 2008.
So, I'm a little bit experienced lol.
Exactly. I am not interested in an immutable distro.
I'm not looking for the "shiny new thing" like CachyOS or Bazzite. I want the stability and ease of use of Ubuntu but without the fucking snaps. But I want a KDE Plasma desktop as it is my desktop of choice.
