Immutable distros recommindation?
(lemmy.ml)
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.

OP, I don't intend to convince you otherwise. I merely intend to share my own takes on this. So, without further a due.
So, first of all, you seem to think that Fedora's updates are equally "unstable" compared to those found on Fedora Atomic. But this is simply categorically wrong due to Fedora Atomic being (as it's name applies) an atomic distro. And hence has far superior updates (in terms of 'stability').
Secondly, I recall this period quite vividly, and I actually agree with you that Fedora's handling was a mess. And, unfortunately, this mess also affected Fedora Atomic. Thankfully, uBlue's team ensured that the issues were not felt on any of its images. So, even if, at times, issues spill over to Fedora Atomic, users of uBlue images will not have to face those. Heck, history has recorded that the uBlue images have consistently prevented those issues to spill over to its images. Thus, while this may (perhaps rightfully so) make one question if they should use Fedora Atomic or not; this, however, does not represent the situation over at uBlue images. Hence, one could rely on those without fearing issues related to 'stability'.
Fair. What makes you hate Red Hat? I know often cited reasons for why people hate Red Hat. But what are your reasons*?
Is this specifically a problem because you hate Red Hat? Because, quite frankly, the same somewhat applies to openSUSE and SLE. But this doesn't seem to bother you.
Excellent point. Since that 'double trouble', it has been relatively stable. However, I wouldn't be surprised if Fedora would act similarly if a new issue arises.
With atomic, unstable updates aren't a problem. You can just run back to previous.
Atomic distros are so cool like that.
