I found the suse immutable distro a bit too much learning over just sticking to arch, but bazzite and the other fedora based immutable distros have been great for not having a shit time every day when my mom group calls me with the ISP tech support and when asked what her operating system is she says Firefox.

I haven't touched my parent's computers since installing kinoite and it stays up to date on its own without breaking anything and I love it. I have bazzite on my laptop and steam deck. I can install so far anything I have wanted with little to no issues and it persists after updating which steamos can't do.

I still have a few other computers running dietpi on the sbc's, arch on one server and nixos on the other for testing misc stuff but since you no longer need to self compile bleeding edge versions of everything to get games to run or have your wifi card show up, why would I? I did my time back in the days of installing various distros on the family win98 and XP computers and the PowerPC macs when the school district upgraded and gave them out.
