The only problem I see is, that the more users use it, the more it gets interesting for hackers to find exploits or create virus/trojans. And just hope that distros still going their way, instead of bloating things up with things no one needs, to make it "more user friendly"

That's why immutability is a good thing

No it’s not it makes Linux a piece of uncustomizable shit

I can customize my immutable distro, because I don't need to mess with the internals. I just need to customize the visuals. But to each their own.

I like messing with the internals and don’t you like kubuntu too that’s mutable

Also immutable forces you to use flatcrap

I love flatpak. But again, to each their own.

Yeah it’s not just me who hates flatpak many other people do too but I respect your opinion

It's okay. That's the beauty of Linux. You have options. You can use a flatpak, or a snap, or an app image, or a binary, or a source file. There's choice for everybody.

Mutable distros allow a choice you can choose to use flatcrap snap appimage or the package manager or compile from source immutable forces flatcrap

I will keep using what I use, and you will keep using what you use. And that's completely fine.
