Hi there folks, I’m still learning about Linux and have yet to dip my toes properly in any arch based distro. Have for the moment fallen in love with the immutable distros based on Universal Blue project. However I do want to learn about what arch has to offer to and plan on installing default arch when I have time. But have been wondering why I haven’t heard of any immutable distros from arch based distros yet.
So, am left wondering if there are talks within that Arch community of building immutable distros?
While writing this post I found a project called Arkane Linux, which seem to be very interesting. Does anyone have nay experience with it? Is there a specific reason why immutable wouldn’t be a good idea when based on Arch?

You get all of this by using Btrfs in a regular distro.
Recently kdeconnect broke on me, I just rolled back the snapshot to the day before.
No you don’t. Refer to this reply I’ve written to someone else.
Btw, Btrfs is only a file system, snapshot-functionality isn’t automatically implied with it. See traditional Fedora as a reference; i.e. defaults to Btrfs, but doesn’t set up Snapper/Timeshift or anything to that effect.
But, even then, snapshot-functionality provides only of a small subset of the benefits in an inferior way (as I’ve explained in the reply to the other person).
