I do plan to have a way too “unlock” it so you can for example enter a console command to be able to install packages like vanilla Arch but they still get applied atomically. I dislike Flatpaks myself so for me to use it on my main workstation, I’d have to be able to never touch a flatpak as well haha. For the average user that wants a “just works” distro like SteamOS but also some of the speed-up from CachyOS, Flatpaks seem like the most intuitive decision however.

Sounds great and exactly how I’d want it! So you basically have a base set of packages which are guaranteed to be stable, but you can still layer stuff on top? Maybe you can also have multiple boot entries like a “safe mode” or a way to boot different combinations of packages. I’d really like to have a somewhat declarative way to manage the software on my laptop and desktop both, the latter being a superset as I need gaming and LLM related software there (which I don’t need on my laptop). I’ll certainly play around with your distro as soon as it’s out. Don’t know when though, as I need to take a few precautions to not fuck up my data first 😅
