Immutable Linux distributions are on the rise recently, with multiple
popular distributions creating their own immutable versions.; it
could be
one of the trends of 2023, as
predicted. While many of these immutable
distributions are focused on server use, there are also some that offer a
desktop experience. OpenSUSE MicroOS
Desktop is one of them, with a minimal openSUSE Tumbleweed as the
base operating system and applications running as Flatpaks or in containers. In its daily use,
it feels a lot like a normal openSUSE desktop. Its biggest benefit is
availability of the newest software releases without sacrificing system
stability.
