    Bazzite is my first true experience with an immutable distro, and wow, what a magical moment it was.

    I’ve been eyeing on fedora 40’s release for some time now because it fixes all the Wayland problems for Nvidia cards. One night my grandma needed some help, so I walked away from my PC, it automatically suspended, came back 30 or so minutes later, and when I logged in I was just automatically on KDE 6 with fedora 40, didn’t even reboot.

    This is truly the year of the Linux desktop.

      Just FYI the Nvidia issues aren’t fixed yet. There’s still lots of apps that flicker. The last fix needed is on Nvidia’s part and should be in their updated drivers in May.

      Are u sure it didn’t shut down when you were away?
      uBlue updates itself, yes, but the updates are staged and need a reboot to apply.

        unless maybe it automatically restarted and put all my applications back on screen that I had running, not sure. but I know it didn’t shut down since I literally hit the power button and it was immediately on, it was asleep.

      Immutable means that the OS will change itself without asking while you’re not looking ?

      What do you do when you don’t like the change ? I would email Linus about it to complain.

        they have an option which lets you turn off automatic updates

        and with immutable distro’s, you can always rollback to a previous state instantly and not update the OS if you don’t want to, just the applications.
