From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Doesn't immutable distro mean the root filesystem is readonly and programs are created with their own unqiue environment?
This post acts like the code for the OS should never change.
So if a critical CVE is reported they cant update ths OS because its supposed to be immutable?
The joke here is very much just that. Immutable = not changing, therefore any update violates the idea of immutable distros.
XD Good one! Could you paste a link for that article? I want to read up on Blendos's podman implementation.
