Bazzite has a very simple process for installing software that isn't on Flatpak: You spin up a virtual machine running a better distro and install it there

Lmao that's how I feel about it. I want to say that rollback isn't the easiest thing, I've tried to boot further down the tree at one point when discord broke (my only rpm install) and immediately got some errors regarding dependencies, so I had to remove it and reinstall it and it seemed fine after that.
I've honestly been thinking about rolling either Debian Ubuntu or arch, but I'm not in a place where I want to fuck with it all again currently.
Edit: I do appreciate you looking out though
they should alias
ujust repent-and-seek-absolutionto some script of thoroughly robust set of rpm ostree conflict identifiers and reset/rollback commands, lol
EDIT: why distrohop, you have distrobox, Do ThIng There, LOL
There's just a sloppy amount of bullshit that's stacked up since my switch from windows, clean slate is tempting. I also miss Apt, ironically enough
Ah well I gueas thats fair if you... have indeed already fucked your ostree uh, raw, i think that was the word you used.
It is kind of annoying to not have that direct control, i get that, and i too am super used to debian based distros and apt after about a decade of being in debian or derivatives.
Yeah, I've got to say though, I've learned a ton fucking around and going through the issues I've gone through. Having to learn how to describe certain issues and knowing where to describe them is pretty huge when searching for technical stuff so that's a plus.
