I believe this is distinctly different. Fedora Silverblue allows you to install packages through rpm-ostree. The idea Adrian presents is that this overlay system is a band-aid for issues in an immutable operating system.

There are several other differences discussed, but it’s also worth mentioning that because solution A exists, doesn’t mean there can’t or shouldn’t be a solution B.

You may be right, however windows iot does in fact exist, and this is what the update screen looks like.

Don’t think so, sounds like a security audit.

I think the reason fedora specifically didn’t is because gnome-console didn’t have the configurability that the old one did.
