Fedora Silverblue is the most frustrating distro so far

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Its the same :D
Rebasing refers to an OSTree remote which is like a git repo, but with binaries and producing bootable systems. There are some differences there.
The idea is: there is a remote that has the exact wanted configuration, your system mirrors it. All the package manager does is similar to
git pull
.If you rebase, you switch the upstream remote, and your system gets the diffs, downloads them.
The cool thing is, that these updates are atomic, so you stay on the current system and the rebased one is only set as the system you boot in after a reboot. You can still
sudo ostree admin pin 0
before rebasing, and your current system will be saved forever to switch back to.Note that /etc is writable so you might still accumulate duplicate or redundant configs.
