What the hell is an immutable OS?
Base system is not changeable. you install user apps etc and those are separate from the root system that remains identical.
Immutable is awesome. The user instead uses flatpak, snap, and/or nix to install their packages and apps. If you want a mutable environment, you can use containers and their many system integration tools like distrobox.The system has rollback functionality thanks to ostree, abroot, or similar technologies, so in case an update goes awry, you can roll back to a previous working image. Update anxiety no longer exists for me
This video on steam os which is also immutable went over it: https://youtu.be/gwUf8pwoA5U?si=RlbN0pDnAgEGa-uf
