I’m about to go ahead and go 100% Linux on my PC and completely get rid of Windows. The latest advancements in Windows application compatibility for Linux has taken strides and it’s now easier than ever to run Windows apps thanks to Wine and Bottles and Steam’s Proton. There’s literally nothing I can’t do in Linux that I could do in Windows.
The distro of choice I will probably go for is going to be Kubuntu. But I’ve been looking at immutable distros as a more stable alternative. But, it sounds to me like it’s more adapted for smaller devices and IoT, like the Steam Deck or similar handheld devices.
Have you installed an immutable distro on your PC? What distro did you use? What was your experience like? What were the pros and cons according to you?
No, the device size doesnt matter at all.
Sounds you only saw Bazzite, which would be my recommendation if you want good Windows app compatibility.
I personally use the official Fedora Kinoite but it is a lot more barebones, and I change quite a bit.
I recommend to try Bazzite or Aurora, it just works. Poorly, because Fedora people make strange decisions, and also leave out too much, I cant recommend vanilla Kinoite for beginners.
I just made a post on how I setup Silverblue and I will do one on how I actually setup my main Kinoite.
That will be bigger, as I have a ton there.
I have my dotfiles, which contain configs, here on Github.
