From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Flatpak saved my ass when I super broke my Arch upgrade but didn't have time to fix it before work. I ran using only Flatpak apps for like 6 weeks because they were the only thing that worked
Funny. True, on superstable but also super unstable systems, having separated apps makes most sense.
Not actually on "immutable" rpm-ostree systems, as these have the best and most solid package management.
So actually when people say "these immutable systems, you just use Flatpaks", actually on the regular systems you should mainly use Flatpaks.
Decent use case. You do use snapshots now, right?
Trying to set up snapshots is what broke my system. Not sure what the issue was exactly, but BTRFS was reporting a different amount of used space than there actually was, and my snapshots started recursively backing up until everything died
Next time I install Linux I'm going to use Ext4 and snapshots out the gate
That's weird. I've had zero issues with BTRFS and I have both compression and snapshots.
Have you looked at bcachefs, by the way?
Honestly, I'm kind of tired of complicated stuff. I just want a fs that works and is easy to do recovery operations on when it doesn't work. My SSD is big enough
Yeah. I'm hoping bcachefs ends up being good.
