  • Atomic OSes should be evangelized more aggressively to laypersons. IMO, they’re great for 3 specific use cases:

    • gaming (bazzite) - personally, I want my gaming box to “just work”
    • thin clients/low-powered laptops used as an entry point to your homelab or other remote systems - again, I like having at least one fairly bulletproof and super stable system to use as a human:homelab gateway/admin machine
    • non-techies. If the update fails, just roll back. Can’t remember if that’s generally an automated recovery process or not, but that sort of idiot-proofing is precisely what the general public needs in the context of Linux. Because there are a lot of idiots out there.
