Yes, Sovereign Computing can be the way for most people. It can be easy to run your own node too! It is a great feeling knowing I will not be rugged! Why did Alby do this move?
Grand Rising Nostr. Stay Sovereign and Stack Sats.
The "thing" is a puppet of the Dark Occult.
Just stay away from all forms of governments as all governments are SLAVERY!

What Is an Immutable Linux Distro, and Should You Use One? Think of it as Linux booting as a Container Image
An immutable Linux distribution is an operating system (OS) that is read-only at its core. That means you can't easily modify the OS. This includes the file system, directories, applications, and even configurations. Even as an administrator, you can't make any modifications to the distribution.
If something gets changed in an immutable distro, it's only temporary and reverts when you reboot. That's why these OSes are called "immutable."
This is one of those "because you can" type perspectives. This is not the same as using a Linux LiveCD boot, as those generally don't keep settings and changes between sessions.
I can liken this closest to using containers, where your OS (or app) boots from the read-only image, but you have volumes which store the user settings changes and documents etc between sessions. A lot depends though on the particular Linux distro as whether it allows the saving of any config files at all, or just limited to maybe the /etc folder.
Obviously, these distros do increase both security and stability (from dependency updates) as the key OS reverts after rebooting.
But, as the article points out, these types of distros may not be for everyone as they have quirks of their own. It is interesting though to see that the Steam Deck actually uses an immutable Linux distro.

NixOS!!!! Nice Post!
We have as a SPECIES have LOST a powerful word..."NO!"
Then, if that does not work, we use the LAST words "COME AND TAKE IT!"
No, but you can do it!!

Don't forget to sub and help me on my quest to 100k!
Ah, this will be great! Thanks, nostr:npub1rxysxnjkhrmqd3ey73dp9n5y5yvyzcs64acc9g0k2epcpwwyya4spvhnp8 for all that you have done over all these years!! You helped me get on my Bitcoin journey!
When buying Bitcoin, use Bisq then use Sparrow Wallet to store your Bitcoin.
With Bitcoin bought with KYC use Sparrow wallet's Whirlpool feature (when the mempool fees are lower) to wash it clean!!
Never let psychopath immoral fucks (All the people working for governments, who are the REAL CRIMINALS) use their threats of violence (keeps you under duress) deterred you from using these awesome software tools!!
Use Linux for your computers and phones.
Always stand up for what is Right (Don't harm anyone)!
Stay out of ALL government contracts!
Remember don't start anything unless some criminal government worker comes to try and start something with you! The pen is mightier then the sword (Most times). Use equity to stop them.
Stay in Love and Defend Love.
