Never really understood Vanilla OS. Why use this compared to other immutable distros like Fedora Silverblue?

gonzoknowsdotcom1 OP ,

You can run containers that are integrated such as android, arch, etc

Guenther_Amanita ,

Which isn’t an unique feature of VOS. You can do the same on Fedora Atomic or any other distro too with Distrobox and Waydroid.

BUT, I like VOS’ implemention. It’s nothing special, but still neat!

MonkCanatella ,

Yeah but that’s true about any linux distro. if you can do it on one, you can most certainly do it on any others

gonzoknowsdotcom1 OP ,

agreed

Guenther_Amanita ,

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.

Secret300 ,

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.
