uBlue's Nvidia images are now 1.0
The goals of this project are great, but technically, it's not that difficult. Here's an older repo for a custom-ostree. ostree configs are a list of packages, an optional post-setup script, and some repos.

Vanilla OS and the next-generation Linux desktop
There's no sway edition right now, but you could use the custom Fedora Silverblue-based ostree-pitti-workstation.

Do you think Silverblue will replace today’s Workstation in the future?

The goal: Use Fedora 37 with Snapper to get a "riceable" Linux desktop that can be rolled back like a time machine (and some comments on why I don't use Silverblue)

Issue with updating Fedora 39 silverblue
Best place to start is to get rid of all the layered packages (RPMFusion) on top of the immutable image then swap to the ublue-Nvidia images that have all the codecs and Nvidia drivers built into the image itself.
-
Making the switch - what are the gaps?
If you're using Nvidia I'd recommend using Fedora Kinoite with the ublue-Nvidia image that comes with the Nvidia drivers pre-built in. That eliminates a big chunk of issues with their drivers which is just building the damn things. AMD and Intel drivers are built into the kernel and require zero effort.

An Overview of Nix in Practice
What you are looking for is UBlue, https://github.com/ublue-os/main.
It's a variant of Silverblue with Nvidia drivers built in.

Are there any major sacrifices you make to play on Linux over Windows?
If you're using Nvidia, then install using the ublue Nvidia image which has the drivers built in, cause they can be a prick to manage otherwise.

Introduction to Immutable Linux Systems
What these sort of introductions to immutable always fail to consider is the other side of the coin, image-based. I'm working on https://universal-blue.org/ along with many people much more skilled than me. We build OCI container images on top of vanilla Fedora Silverblue & many other editions with different desktops. Those images can then be booted to (or rather rebased to) using rpm-ostree. This is a more robust way of extending the system than layering, and the same changes can be easily benefited or inherited from by anyone. You can even make your own image really easily!
I think that VanillaOS and SUSE are working on similar things, but we're not an OS project, just a downstream from Fedora. Fedora's full support is underway but with what's already working perfectly our methods are already IME some of the most robust and easy ways of delivering Nvidia drivers for example.
