I have a problem
If you're interested in air-gapping, I've noticed there's some innovating being done around it for kubernetes frameworks, which might include some ways to keep the machine connected without being connected, if that's your bag. Seems like a good candidate for a cattle OS though, e.g. MicroOS or Fedora Core. This is awesome:

Running Nvidia drivers in Clear Linux or Flatcar?
I don't know about Flatcar but Fedora CoreOS provides good instructions for building a custom image https://github.com/coreos/coreos-assembler/blob/main/docs/building-fcos.md.
-
Looking for recommendations for modern Linux server OS
Secondly, FCOS build is documented and is easy to build your own custom base image: https://github.com/coreos/coreos-assembler/blob/main/docs/building-fcos.md. You can build anything including installers, live boot ISOs and PXE boot images.

(microOS) i know it has a "read-only" filesystem. but does that really mean I can never install updates? or whats going on. I installed it a few days ago on my laptop and it always says updates available and then updates can't be installed
Use toolbox to create a container for your application

I have a problem
Actually, now that I think about it, (the OpenSUSE version is just a bash script)[https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openSUSE/microos-toolbox/bd59c753baf9ef4553ca15f417b7e8d55a4a05a8/toolbox], so you could just wget that last link, which is the raw user content for toolbox from (their github page)[https://github.com/openSUSE/microos-toolbox] and chmod +X ... you'd still need podman installed, of course... (the github page has a bunch of info, I'm sure there's other references in OpenSUSE's WIKI, they're good about that kind of stuff)

how to test a rpm package after a successful `osc build`
If you want to have a clean slate to make sure you haven't for example missed any dependencies in the spec file you could either use a VM or look into something like toolbox, if that is what you mean.

MicroOS Toolbox - does anyone know what the SUDO= flag is for in .toolboxrc?
It was added as part of this commit: https://github.com/kubic-project/microos-toolbox/commit/f72e99abacc827a3b4903ac36f1932d1b6b1eebd

Error with codecs
There are some challenges hindering the popularity of MicroOS and Fedora Silverblue. More developers need to supply their software with flatpak and snap packages and/or we need a very easy way to install GUI apps on the toolbox. By easy I mean, one click easy. Command line scare some users.

Snaps on microOS
Cool! I'm using it as my daily driver for more than 1 year. You are indeed right about "the MicroOS way" being not adding any third-party repo. And the way you achieve this is by using Flatpaks (and toolbox, for debugging, dev environment, CLI apps not available as Flatpaks, etc https://github.com/kubic-project/microos-toolbox/blob/master/README.md)
