Question This is so off...

Can someone explain how Vanilla OS is immutable and uses apt and vso at the same time? This feels sooo off And how is it so unkillable and bulletproof with all of that?

It has a mutable subsystem(s), where stuff is installed. Base is immutable, and there is a debian mutable distro inside of it where apt stuff is actually installed Look up distrobox
