Not anymore if you run an immutable system
Lol on nixos I've broken my gui twice so far. Keeping old configurations is nice but I learned the hard way that I should have been keeping copies of my configuration.nix
I haven't tried any ostree based distros yet.
You can always break your GUI yourself, but I was talking about updates breaking it.
Ah yes that makes sense. I was changing things in the name of "upgrades", not updates after all.
Use git if you're not already and you can easily roll back and forward and have feature branches for experimental stuff.
