    You couldn’t just layer it on, or use distribox and container it? I have plenty of Linux on machines I work with, but my gaming rig is Bazzite, and it literally does it’s job perfectly, which is to game, and the few other misc things beyond its regular scope I have done in the couple’s years it’s been on that machine I have had no issues with?

      I just switched to Bazzite recently and have been using containers through podman/docker for anything not on Bazaar. But what do people mean when they say “layering” on an immutable distro? I’m very much still new at this

        You can layer packages not in the base image. This effectively installs that package. Except by default the “installation” will not take effect until the next boot.
