I found an immutable Linux distro that never breaks and is effortless to use

▤ Summary

ShaniOS is an Arch-based immutable Linux distribution that implements a blue/green deployment model using Btrfs subvolumes to provide atomic updates and reliable rollbacks. It includes Flatpak integration, AppArmor profiles, firewall defaults, full-disk encryption, dynamic swap creation, and NVIDIA GPU support, and ships in GNOME and KDE editions. The author reports a smooth 7 minute 40 second deployment, fast performance, and flawless switching between blue and green environments during testing. The article recommends trying ShaniOS on a spare machine or VM and positions immutable distros as especially suitable for new users due to their robustness.
