Vanilla OS Is Not Your Ordinary Linux Distro

Vanilla OS is an Ubuntu-based Linux distro that has its own package manager (apx) that installs packages as containers. It can install packages from the repos of Ubuntu, Arch Linux and Fedora. It also has support for flatpak and appimage...

Nix, Silverblue, and Vanilla really are "next generation" distributions. The novel packaging formats designed to give stability and security to users, and maximise availability of software across distributions is truly something to get excited for as a Linux user. SteamOS may have been controversial initially for saying its filesystem would be "immutable" and using flatpaks exclusively, it's likely to be the future of the Linux desktop experience. Awesome stuff!

@NormanF62 Жыл бұрын

The problem with the immutable desktops is you ever wanted to make changes in your root directory, you can’t. In Vanilla OS, you can turn immutability off, make the changes you want and when you’re done, you can turn it back to immutable. For power users, its the best of both worlds.

@Yakut58 Nothing new for SteamOS or others that use it sure, but immutability of the root filesystem is very novel across mainstream Linux :)

@merthyr1831 Жыл бұрын

@@NormanF62 Similar to SteamOS then. Ideally, cases where even a power user should be modifying the root dir should be flagged and modified so users don't need to modify it at all (at least without protections such as atomic transactions). I think that's what ABRoot might be trying to accomplish, as well as the packaging system in general - By running containers you can safely modify root directories on a per-app basis, rather than at the OS level. For SteamOS, the main reason users have been disabling immutability is to run apps that aren't available in flatpak/appimage formats. This approach would solve most reasons to disable the feature. As older package formats fall out of popular use, and this container approach matures, we should hopefully find ways around the pitfalls of immutability and build a much more stable desktop/general purpose OS for everyone!

@ppen9u1n Жыл бұрын

@@NormanF62 That's where `nix` shines IMHO: it's immutable but making your change in your configuration.nix (which should typically be in a VCS) is so trivial and quick that you haven't just applied your change but also tracked it, which should actually be the standard of configuration management in pretty much all (serious) environments. While arguably containers and nix are different in terms of runtime-resource separation, for most other intents and purposes they're very similar, but nix doesn't suffer from any of the integration issues that were plagueing Derek in this video ;)

VanillaOS seemed like a perfect choice for me and I followed it's development process since the begging. Ubuntu's as a base gives me hardware support that my PC needs (I run into many hardware issues on other distro bases). I appreciate vanilla gnome as a clean slate that I can work on. On-demand immutable system, apx, flatpak and appimage support, modern good installer, latest technologies used. I love everything on paper. Of course the initial release is not even close to perfect, and unfortunately I can't distrohop to it just now. But we really need development in this direction.

I really like the idea behind the apx package manager. Being able to install more packages and ones that come from different release cycles seems useful to me (stability or bleeding edge for instance).

@merthyr1831 Жыл бұрын

It also gives distro maintainers a reason to start moving away from "legacy" packaging formats like apt/deb etc. as moving to flatpak/appimage/snap won't come with the downside of losing older software. It's the same concept that has allowed gamers to adopt Linux over Windows (WINE/Proton) and allowed Apple to migrate to ARM from x86 (Rosetta). Users don't care about what technology is better, but prefer stability. Devs don't care about stability (in the short term) if it means migrating to better technology: This is the ultimate compromise!

Using Vanilla OS seems rather annoying due to it all using containerized apps. The fact it doesn't try creating aliases for newly installed apps in the terminal sounds rather annoying I would think most people would perfer to just run an app by typing its name in rather then having to do "flatpak run name" or "apx run name" for example. it also makes it so you have to edit shellscripts to use those run commands instead of just using the path to a binary.

The concept is that nothing interacts with anything else so if you have incompatible software, it can’t bring down the entire system along with and any malware can only run in a container. When you delete it, those things are removed, too.

@yasserkerbache Жыл бұрын

I agree. I think it's really cool and unique, especially the way the package manager works, but they should really change the way you run the containerized apps from a terminal/run prompt because it will become annoying really fast. Perhaps they can utilize something like snap which lets you just type the name of the app to run it?

Definitely a pain point. It's an immature implementation for sure. I'd like to see Vanilla implement the same approach as Proton/Rosetta: making sure the user doesn't have to change their behaviour, while engineering a solution that fundamentally changes how applications and underlying software is run.

Oh wow I saw the title of this video and thought oh great another distro, but this one is actually really neat. Could be revolutionary even! I do wish they would just add the installed packages bin folder to PATH somehow but it seems like they have some ways to go in general before I would actually install this in my system but I'll definitely be keeping a close eye on this project now. I do wish they would've used plasma. I just switched to KDE neon on my work laptop (coming from popos) and I really like it. I wish more of these ubuntu based distros would go the QT route. I just prefer the look. Thanks for updating us on this promising distro!

@yasserkerbache Жыл бұрын

Great video DT! I think Vanilla is a unique distro and I really love what it is trying to achieve (being theoretically unbreakable) - but I really dislike how it is containerizing every single thing you install. The way it allows you to install software from various distros, on top of flatpaks and appimages, can add an additional layer of unneeded complexity in my opinion. On top of this, it could really use an automated way to alias the names of containerized packages (apx or flatpak), so you can type just their name to run them from the terminal - because this can get really tedious otherwise. I'm interested to see where the creator is going with this! It is definitely a unique project!

Thanks for the review. I gave it a try today, the installer UI looks polished, however backend could use some work, for example I don't understand why it defaults to those unusual keyboard layout and timezone or why it enforces a minimum of 50G of space without option to do any partition customizations. Also there could be some logic when it comes to packages for example, ask for VM tools for hyper-v if it runs in hyper-v vs generic openvm tools.
