Immutable distros works great when you want them exactly as they come. Anything else is a shit show IMHO.
As an example, multiple fedora based immutable distros dont have the codecs required to play YouTube videos. You have to either replace the rpm-ostree based Firefox with the flatpaks one or layer ffmpeg over the base system. Both solutions I wouldn’t expect someone without Linux knowledge to be able to do.
Can confirm. Was quite unhappy in my mechanical engineering job, had an opportunity to develop something nice in python, was told we’d do it in excel/vba instead, still unhappy.

I remember those questions! As soon as I read high school my mind went from “working for Canonical would be nice” to “let’s justify not writing an essay by reading everything bad about Canonical”.
Lucky for me it was easy as r/recruitinghell was full of post about people doing the whole process and being rejected. Also the CEO had a reddit account and the way he was justifying this process didn’t jive with me, at all.
I’m still in a mechanical engineering world so just saying INT and FLOAT has people running away. Excel is the “safe zone” for them, sadly it means that I’ll just be doing the VBA part and oh gawd please get me out of here…
