From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The upward trend is not because Bazzite is immutable.
I disagree with you fundamentally, if it wasn't for the simple updates and stability this would not have the success that it does. The image is part of the model.
lol you're confusing me, bazzite isn't immutable. Do you mean to say "Bazzite is growing for other reasons?"
Wut? You're responding to a trend graph for Fedora's immutable (Atomic) forks.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bazzite_(operating_system)
But yes, since the trend chart is showing immutable distros and how Bazzite is growing, I am saying the fact that Bazzite is immutable has nothing to do with it's growth.
Edit: Reading again, I realize you might not know that Fedora Atomic is the immutable base. 😉
The Bazzite team doesn't control the wikipedia page, just the official documentation. Someone made up the term "immutable design", that's not a thing it's just a container. There's no need to confuse people just call it bazzite or a container. Atomic is a fedora brand name, it's not a thing to classify things under.
As you can see from the comments in the thread all this does is confuse people.

I'm a big fan of Bazzite, but as stated in the docs, "immutable" is a term the community uses to describe it.
Education is the key to reducing confusion, not pretending a system architecture doesn't exist or matter.
