    I like the concept of atomic distros, but the implementation leaves a lot to be desired for me. Having to reboot after installing any software seems counterproductive to me (admittedly this was my very limited experience when I tried Bazzite).

      On Fedora you can run rpm-ostree apply-live to apply any changes you make without rebooting

        Learned something new, thank you! I’m old school so it’s going to take some time to acclimate I think.

          Awesome! Fedora Atomic definitely has a learning curve, but once you get used to it it’s one of the best experiences I’ve had

            Well I’m not on it anymore because it frustrated this old aging brain. I’m currently on Garuda. But I may give it a go in a VM again.
