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 am running NixOS on all my machines and love it. The manual is a bit rough and there can be some small issues, but it makes my life so much easier especially on servers. Would definitely recommend.
