Upstream images vs bazzite: https://github.com/ublue-os/countme/blob/main/growth_upstream_with_bazzite.svg
My prediction: bazzite may have more installs than Fedora KDE by the end of the year.

I’ve been using Linux as my main OS for about 15 years. I had my system break down in other occasions in the same way you describe. It is a nuisance, but luckily it never was a major problem. I believe once I had to reinstall the system, I was very happy to have a separate home partition.
I’m not sure what you mean by layering apps over the system, that could be interesting. Especially because I imagine something like a VPN needs root access. Is it possible to install a binary as a service with root access if that is not available in the repositories? I do for example have to use a quite obscure VPN protocol.
Yeah. You can layer it like a git repo fork layers it’s changes. If something breaks you can just clear that forked branch and redo it. Takes like 2 minutes to fix.
So yeah you can alter system files in a very safe way and can easily revert changes if you don’t like the result. rpm-ostree reset is the command that clears all changes and resets to master. I’d recommend looking at the rpm-ostree docs for a full explanation of functionality
Seems like a nice idea, I’ll have a look.
It’s nice to have an undo button on terminal shenanigans!
