I like the atomic nature of it
Did you mean immutable? Never heard of an “atomic distro” before.

They refer to the same thing, but people have been preferring “atomic” over “immutable” recently.

Atomic is all-or-nothing upgrades / block upgrades instead of individual packages Immutable is a read-only operating system root (yes, you have access to /etc, fedora got pedantic about this) You can have one, the other, or both, or none. See my reply to OP for sources but there are more than just the two I referenced.
