Yeah, it’s part of the Universal Blue family of distros which Bazzite is part of. Technically it’s not immutable (they call it atomic), but yeah. For gui apps I just use flatpaks & appimages, for cli apps I do: brew install whatever. 99% of the time this does the trick, for that 1% which is some obscure random app I really want to try, I just use Kontainer which is a GUI for distrobox, basically it let’s me install any linux app for any distro. And for those super rare cases when I need to use a Windows app, I use Winboat which is freaking great. Aurora now has a live iso, you could try it without installing it and see if everything works out for you.
