Thoughts on atomic distros? (lemmy.today)

So, I recently got interested with the idea of an atomic distro, particularly the derivatives of Fedora Kinoite (currently testing Aurora).

What's your experience with them? What are the unexpected troubles and did you manage to resolve them? Do you feel it's worth it to learn the nuances of their use?

Also, on a personal testing note, did you manage to properly run AppImages and what did you do to make it happen? I couldn't properly run them either natively or via Fedora toolbox on Aurora. (Also, I borked Aurora within 4 hours of trying to install Outline VPN that consistently had issues with tunneling).

Oh, it is annoying part of GNU/Linux that there is no way to override /usr/share/* resources system-wide. It is possible to do for each user by placing files into ~/.local/share but not for the system.
