How to avoid 1GB Flatpak updates every week?
Here the issue has been addressed bu there are some variations.
-
I like flatpaks, have a few dozen of them installed, but damn those updates are massive
This case is a combination of an Nvidia problem and a flatpak problem. The Nvidia problem is as you stated, but there are also issues with the way Flatpak is packaging their platform packages, with multiple open bugs.

Issue with nvidia 525.85.05
See https://github.com/flathub/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia/issues/151

New NVIDIA driver, new problems
Today I installed driver 525.78.01-1 and all flatpak apps lost their hardware acceleration, steam in flatpak can't launch games because flatpak didn't updated their nvidia runtime to latest version. How I can update this runtime by hand because on their github page it shows that their commis shown latest version https://github.com/flathub/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia.

Which mangohud should I install?
Old driver versions should not be installed again once you remove them. What could happen is Flatpak re-installing a driver version you already have, when you run flatpak update (bug report here).

Steam Flatpak suddently has horrific performance
Yeah that happens sometimes when there's a build error. You can check https://github.com/flathub/org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.nvidia to see if the latest build was successful or not. Usually they're very quick to add even beta releases.

Bedrock Linux and Btrfs/BEES working together to reduce dependency hell
This nVidia issue also hits other projects like flatpak. They have their own solution; it might be possible for Bedrock to leverage their effort or otherwise follow their lead at some point.
-
PSA for Nvidia users - use Steam through flatpak
Also have fun not being able to use DLSS on any of your games, because the Flatpak Nvidia drivers don't ship the required nvngx dlls.

Show HN: Convert your Containerfile to a bootable OS
That seems more like Distrobox to me(?) https://distrobox.it/

Windows 11 now comes with its own adware
Regarding the stability issue on a dev machine - you may be interested in playing with one of the immutable-os distros, such as SilverBlue (fedora based).
The high-level take-away is you can't break your actual OS since it's root filesystem is read-only, and you use "pet" containers (on docker, podman, whatever) to do your work in. Applications are either sandboxed via Flatpak, or installed/run inside your pet containers. If your pet container dies, you cry about it for a moment, and when you're ready you get a new one - your actual os and other containers remain unaffected.
I use distrobox[1] to create/run the pet containers.

Tools for Linux Distro Hoppers
Distrobox is a tool that enables us to try Linux distro CLI, including their package manager. This requires a containerization tool (e.g., Docker). In Windows, this can be achieved using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)
- Distrobox: Use any Linux distribution inside your terminal
-
Fedora Atomic Desktops
I use containerized versions of things, ubuntu and chainguard images mostly.
You can always create containers with init if that's how you want to do that though. Some distros publish images that come that way: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/blob/main/docs/useful_...

Operating System?
Yes, you can do that but I've seen others use something like distrobox to run linux inside of SteamOS: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/blob/main/docs/posts/steamdeck_guide.md

How much will I screw up my system after installing Merkuro Calendar (KDE Akonadi application), formerly called Kalendar, on GNOME?
For such cases you might use something like this: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox

Battery consumption of using remote development with WSL2?
Btw #3: Depending on what the user is trying to accomplish, e.g. maybe to make WSL(2) itself more of a "subsystem" than a "container engine", using something like Distrobox or nsbox.dev can be a good idea (along with Docker or Podman in Distrobox's case; the other one uses systemd-nspawn).

Cannot run containers with Distrobox
1. Find here in "Containers Distros" section the distro image that you want to install ("Toolbox" versions are better because they are configured for Distrobox) and get it URL: https://distrobox.it/compatibility/#containers-distros 2. Use that URL to create Distrobox: distrobox create -i registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora-toolbox:39 -n fedora_1_39 3. Enter Distrobox fedora_1_39: distrobox enter fedora_1_39 4. You are already in Distrobox console. Look at the name in console, it should be include the container name. 5. To exit Distrobox: exit 6. If you run: distrobox list you will see all distroboxes on the system. You will also see that distrobox that we exited is still running. 7. To stop distrobox use commands: distrobox stop fedora_1_39
