    Never really understood Vanilla OS. Why use this compared to other immutable distros like Fedora Silverblue?

        Which isn’t an unique feature of VOS. You can do the same on Fedora Atomic or any other distro too with Distrobox and Waydroid.

        BUT, I like VOS’ implemention. It’s nothing special, but still neat!

      I’m a huge fan of Silverblue, but VanillaOS still looks pretty promising.

      It doesn’t have much unique to offer imo, but it seems to be “the next Mint” in how I see it.

      It has a similar philosophy (user friendliness and reliability), but kind of a different implementation.

      Mint tries to archive that by looking similar to Windows UI-wise and being “stable” (in terms of a conservative release cycle).

      VOS archieves that by looking simplistic (appealing to younger folks like myself) and being immutable + self managing.

      Both are valid, but the key difference is that Mint is “old fashioned”, while VOS tries to use new technologies for it’s goals.

      Better Distrobox tooling I think. Actually pretty cool, that has to be ported. Silverblue is the better base imho.
