It requires literally zero work from me, that’s why I’m enthusiastic. Saying mutable Linux is zero work is dead wrong.

Most of the work in my system is installing software and changing configurations of said software. The rest is using the software. What is the difference in the amount of work here? I guess on an immutable system you will also be installing software and modifying configuration files. In my system something can malfunction to which I have to change some system configurations: for example past week I had to change some systemd-resolved configuration because on a specific interface it was using some random DNS I didn’t want it to use. I assume this work will also have to be done on an immutable system. What is the work which you have to do on a normal distribution and not on an immutable system?
