Special mention goes out to the Nvidia images by uBlue. The innovation over at uBlue is kinda mind-blowing, to be honest. Notably, the heavy-lifting is done by the same technology behind Fedora Silverblue. However, it's an excellent showcase of what's possible beyond that. You mentioned your intent to install your packages; how about crafting your own image with only the stuff you want that can somehow be updated/upgraded/tweaked/customized etc to your heart's content as you go without forgoing 'the feeling of a freshly installed OS' and can be reproduced (almost) instantly on another device. You don't have to deal with bitrot, configuration drift and similar issues any longer.
