I've been a Linux user for about a decade and a half, most of that time I've been using OpenSUSE, but recently I've been hopping again.

For my main machine, I needed a distro that natively runs and installs .deb packages at root for the program used for my language lessons (fcitx5 nor ibus played well with sandboxes) so I've landed on Kubuntu for that machine.

But I'm really intrigued by the setup of VanillaOS, apx seems like such a perfect solution in many ways to my needs, but I don't have as much experience with immutable distros.

Lastly I'm fascinated with NixOS, and really want to get into it, but life is just so busy that I don't have the energy to devote to learning it.

So, what about you folks?

I think my setup is vanilla, but Arch on PC and Debian on my home server. I've been wanting to try an immutable distro, especially an Arch-based one, but am satisfied enough with my setup that I haven't bothered doing the research yet

Edit: also, about NixOS, I've been fascinated by it too, and wanted to install it on my latest PC, but ended up going with Arch because it's what I know and life has been to demanding for me to devote the time Nix deserves .
