Never really understood Vanilla OS. Why use this compared to other immutable distros like Fedora Silverblue?
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.
*its goals
Their package manager interest me. From what I've read it seems I can install any app from any distros repo and it'll set up the container for me
Better Distrobox tooling I think. Actually pretty cool, that has to be ported. Silverblue is the better base imho.
