Upstream images vs bazzite: https://github.com/ublue-os/countme/blob/main/growth_upstream_with_bazzite.svg

My prediction: bazzite may have more installs than Fedora KDE by the end of the year.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had an update on a mutable system fuck my shit up to a point I just reinstalled the distro. Not having to worry about that is my primary reason for moving to immutable system. While malware and viruses are still mostly prevalent in the windows world, Linux isn’t immune to it. That is, unless it’s an immutable distro.
I had that happen many times, but that was on arch. On other distributions getting updates which break the system is quite rare in my experience.
How does an immutable distribution make the system immune to virus? I’d imagine flatpak can have upstream attacks as well as opening stuff in vulnerable software. You still have access to all your personal files, which is likely what the malware will go after.
