    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.

        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
