  • If you install home brew 90% of the issues go away.

    The problem is that most Linux software assumes it can do whatever it wants, and immutable distros do not let you write to the system files.

    This creates confusion, because you see a guide for Fedora and it said dnf install xyz, but dnf doesn’t work. The solution is to add it to your image tree (no) or to create a toolbox with that package (complicated, requires setup, gets complicated if your tool needs access to Wayland for clipboard or something).

    Bazzite solves this by using brew, which is a package manager built for macOS which has had immutable systems for years. Brew solves most of the issues.

    For me by the time I went immutable it just made more sense to go full declarative with nix, but nix is also a steeper learning curve.
