Bootc and OSTree: Modernizing Linux System Deployment

I'm just getting into using containers for user stuff on an atomic desktop, but is it bonkers to something like:

distrobox-host-exec distrobox enter Arch -- nvim

To execute something from one container in another? It feels intuitive enough, but like almost *too* straightforward...

🎤 I recently had the chance to talk about Nextcloud Atomic (and a bit about NextcloudPi and the Secrets app) on the Linux Prepper podcast.

Compared to the short introduction to NC Atomic at #nextcloudconf25 you will find a lot more insights, technical details and rationale for my architectural decisions.

I just tried out #Fedora #SilverBlue and it is amazing. Having an #ImmutableOS, having #Flatpak and #Toolbox is an absolute genius idea.

Although this is great, I prefer #Debian. Then I found #Distrobox which does essentially the same. It is written in #Bash and uses #Podman or other #container solutions.

This way I can run #Debian stable which will eventually have some out-dated but rock solid software but I may need some newer software. Or software that I don't want to install on my system

The KDE project team officially released the alpha version of KDE Linux! A new immutable OS built using Arch Linux Packages!

Why openSUSE Kalpa Is the Best KDE Immutable OS

Hey #linux users. Please boost.

I maintain (remotely) ~10 linux laptops for a client. I've used #ubuntu LTS for years because they don't need anything fancy, stability is more important that bang-up-to-dateness. But I've gone off Ubuntu because of #snaps and it increasingly pushing adverts/pro-services.

Anyone got any experience with remote admin-ing and maintaining linux laptops? Would prefer #gnome based.

@triskelion @purism I appreciate what GrapheneOS and other projects are doing. I wish gOS good luck in:
- getting early access to future #AOSP sources as development is no longer public.
- fixing the myriad of #Google shenanigans with the OS and Chromium.
- getting mental health help for the main developer - he deserves all the help he can get.

Unlike gOS, #Linuxphone development is not riding on decades of Google funded development of the OS. Progress is therefore slower but it is improving gradually.

Besides #PureOS, there is also #Mobian and #postmarketOS - I especially look forward to the latter's future #ImmutableOS version which would have security benefits as well.
