First impressions of BlendOS:
- Freaking Discord as main place of development + almost no documentation to be found elsewhere
- Okay, it kinda works and all of advertised features (except for being easy to “remix”) are there
- It is just immutable Arch + waydroid and distrobox with fancy Electron gui and some additions to make it work slightly better
- Absolutely not “Painless”, installed application icons are not there (maybe bug related to immutablity, it is still beta), everything needs to be set up more manually than it is on a beginner friendly OS, especially if you are setting it on any other language that is not English.
- Still, it seems to hold good middle ground between power user stuff and user friendlyness, I may consider using it myself once it is out of beta with issues fixed, but my initial plans on possible forking it for my distro are not really viable since I’m doing another type of OS in terms of UX
