If you’re over on mastodon it would help if you could submit an answer to my poll over which Linux distro I will hopefully settle on

Hi there. I know what is a meta distro (Gentoo, bedrock, LFS), and an immutable distro (NixOS, Fedora Silverblue, MicroOS, VanillaOS) but what is a transactional distro?

So are you talking about, like NixOS and Guix, where they are based on a paclage manager?

NixOS and guix are reproducible, that’s one of the main purposes of them

Okay, I get it now. So transactional is in regards to reproducible builds (like the config file approach taken by NixOS and Guix)
I’ve tried basically every mainstream-ish distro there is, I just want some outside opinions because I’m bad at picking stuff and I want to stick with something for a while
Also Linux Mint is quite boring imo
When it comes to an OS, boring is good.
boring is good for main computer
fun is good for a secondary computer/vm
I’m dual booting Linux Mint Debian for boring stability and Garuda (Arch) for gaming and a fun desktop.
