πŸ“° Immutable Linux distros sound terrible on paper, but a month of Silverblue proved me wrong

I remember when I first learned about immutable distros. I'm a big fan of Fedora operating systems, and one day, I decided to check out all the spins you can download. One of them was Fedora Silverblue, the immutable GNOME version of the operating system. I had no idea what an immutable OS was, and the more I researched what they were, the more convinced I was that they were a flat downgrade to a mutable one.
