A combined review of Vanilla OS 22.10 and Nobara Linux was published by DistroWatch.
Review: Vanilla OS 22.10, Nobara Project 36, Nobara Project 37
There were two young projects which caught my attention at the start of 2023 precisely because they aimed to build on and improve upon the experiences offered by their parent distributions. The first project I'd like to talk about is Vanilla OS. Vanilla is based on Ubuntu and uses the GNOME desktop environment. Vanilla's big selling point is its immutable core upon which we can install containers for running third-party software.
Vanilla OS uses ABRoot to provide its immutable base and provides a tool called VSO to handle system maintenance. Vanilla also includes a custom package manager called Apx for handling software management.
