It’s an immutable distro that leverages containers to allow you to install packages from different distros. Further, it provides friendly tools and guis to make this easier than it would otherwise be
In general it is -as mentioned by @h3ron@lemmy.zip- an immutable, Debian based distribution with GNOME. It uses a quiet interesting system called ABRoot for doing updates. I use it on one of my spare machines now since they did the switch from Ubuntu base to Debian and honestly i like it.
Ah thanks. Now I remember why I never used VanillaOS previously. I’ve been keeping my eye on bluefin-LTS though. Looks like a really interesting project. CentOS Stream based immutable distribution.
What is VanillaOS again?

Does it use an LTS kernel like Debian or is it more like Ubuntu/Fedora?
It’s Debian Sid based so I assume you find the Kernel used therein in VanillaOS

I’m guessing it must be very plain
