I recently took up Bazzite from mint and I love it! After using it for a few days I found out it was an immutable distro, after looking into what that is I thought it was a great idea. I love the idea of getting a fresh image for every update, I think for businesses/ less tech savvy people it adds another layer of protection from self harm because you can't mess with the root without extra steps.
For anyone who isn't familiar with immutable distros I attached a picture of mutable vs immutable, I don't want to describe it because I am still learning.
My question is: what does the community think of it?
Do the downsides outweigh the benefits or vice versa?
Could this help Linux reach more mainstream audiences?
Any other input would be appreciated!
In the Filesystem section for that app in Flatseal, you need to add the path to your NAS drive (the same SMB path that it's mounted in the Files app). That will give your FF flatpak access to that location.
Thanks. I tried that using:
smb://[NAS NAME].local/[FOLDER NAME]/
I copied that path straight out of the Files app. Unfortunately it does not work. There is a yellow exclamation point flag next to it that says "This is not a valid option."
I ended up installing the rpm-ostree version of Firefox, which accesses my Nas just fine for proton drive uploads. I do hope to eventually figure out how to do this with flatpak/flatseal, but this works for now at least. I appreciate the help!
