Bedrock? I prefer java thanks :)

I used it for a bit, it was surprisingly stable and easy to use. However, I eventually gave up on it because it was much harder to find the source of issues in the system.

With tools like Distrobox now available, I'm not sure how useful this is anymore.

I tried it but it was too much for me. It's not my thing, but it's a very interesting and very cool project and I have nothing but respect towards the Bedrock Linux team for what they have achieved.

What about RockSolid Linux, I mean, Debian?

It's interesting, but it always seemed a bit too hacky for my liking and possibly prone to breakage. Eg seeing the compatibility table here doesn't inspire much confidence: https://bedrocklinux.org/0.7/feature-compatibility.html

I also don't like that it hijacks your host distro, it would've be been better if it was a bit more self-contained, like how Nix works on other distros. Feels like the mashup Bedrock does would be a PITA for troubleshooting (for instance, mixing binaries from different distros via $PATH is just asking for trouble). I also dislike that it uses FUSE to share resources between strata, given how inefficient FUSE is.

I think for most purposes, if you really want to mix-and-match distro features, a far cleaner approach would be to just use Distrobox.

Yes, it's great. I've ran it on a void linux base, a debian base and an alpine base. Was rock solid each and every time.

Yes, it's fantastic if you need that kind of thing. I used Bedrock for years to have OpenSUSE's patched kde-firefox running on Kubuntu. I never had any issues whatsoever. Very cool project.

Ngl, looks like an interesting and cool project.

No.

I rather stay on java linux
