Immutable distros works great when you want them exactly as they come. Anything else is a shit show IMHO.

As an example, multiple fedora based immutable distros dont have the codecs required to play YouTube videos. You have to either replace the rpm-ostree based Firefox with the flatpaks one or layer ffmpeg over the base system. Both solutions I wouldn’t expect someone without Linux knowledge to be able to do.

VM is still windows tho, just one layer deeper.

Freecad is OK but it wouldn’t even be considered in a commercial setting like I’m working in. I work with Catia, Solidworks and Polyworks. None on those run on Linux.

Sadly Windows is still required for a lot of cad softwares.

It doesn’t make sense, Forgejo just forked gitea and discarded all of the history (I.e.: issues and PR) previously included in gitea’s github repository. Of course they could host it on their own platform, it was already functional and they could start from a blank state.

Here’s the specific response and it’s even better than anticipated.

And the best of all… Uwuntu
