What are the pros and cons for desktops ? EDIT : Thanks all. I’ll try Silverblue, bazzite and more.

    I was able to break fedora silverblue by messing file permissions in the home directory. Toolbx then stopped working, without which the distro is unusable.

    You can also make chaneges in /etc and similarly ruin your system.

    Just saying they aren’t quite as “unbreakable” as advertised.

      all changes in etc are snapshotted with each update so you could just roll back to your previous version and it would fix it.

      I assume you meant you messed up permissions in your home directory, and yes that is pretty much the only place you can permanently mess something up with silverblue.
