I read about universal-blue but I am not confident about using it, as it is not official and not made by the Fedora developers, but I am also not sure if that matters much.
The security from reproducibility does make sense to me, although what I had in mind was more about the malicious actors not being able to modify the system part.
Thanks a lot for the detailed reply! Lemmy seems to be a lot less judgmental and a lot more helpful than Reddit!
That clears up my concerns and questions about both Silverblue and uBlue. Though it sounded convenient for my use case, I avoided uBlue as I thought it was a random fork that might not be reliable in the long term. I will be testing it to see if it works for me or if I can adapt to it. Thanks a lot!
