100% feel this way too. So much of the reason why we use containers is just not spreading crap all over the filesystem. It's why single binary distributables made popular by Golang are such a winner, ex: Caddy.
- discardedrefuse 3y agoYou might be interested in Fedora's Atomic desktops. They are immutable OS's where you don't spread crap all over the filesystem. Instead you rely on flatpaks, containers (toolbox or distrobox), and single binaries (if you got them). https://fedoraproject.org/atomic-desktops/ https://fedoraproject.org/atomic-desktops/
- geenat 3y agoBeen keeping an eye on it. Would be far more excited about GoboLinux though, to be honest. > the filesystem is the database is such an epiphany for GoboLinux, truly atomic.
