    You’re talking about declarative systems like Nix. Immutable just means that the root filesystem is read-only. You can install programs as Flatpaks or inside a container (toolbox on Silverblue).

      Oh, no kidding.
      I always thought immutable required the declarative installs.
      I guess, immutable is more “containerised userland”?
