Vanilla's release page has a lot of marketing fluff, but I suppose that makes it professional π . It seems interesting, like they're bringing a lot of stuff together for QoL. I might try it on a spare PC soon, hopefully it plays nice with dual booting.

Vanilla OS sounds very cool. We're seeing some pretty cool concepts for immutable distros, each with their own ideas and technologies: Silverblue using rpm-ostree, Ublue using OCI images, Opensuse aeon using btrfs snapshots and now vanillaOS with their new tools. Pretty exciting times for desktop Linux π.
