That’s a good data point I’ll keep in mind. Unfortunately cachy does not do nearly as much for the user out of the box so I can’t really recommend it to those friends, but it’s a great distro.
The whole point of inmutabiltiy is that, even if the system breaks itself on update, you just rollback to a working image. I’ve had issues with bazzite, but never once have I lost a system with it.
Installed Bazzite once. Lasted about two weeks, before this hard-to-break-distro broke on it’s own.
Never did anything to it, it just started acting up.
Switched to CachyOS and it just works.

An old PC. Some ASUS motherboard from before 2010, Intel CPU and an Nvidia GTX 1650

I guess the point is that automatic updates ruin stuff way more unexpectedly, than knowing that it broke because I pressed the update button.
Before knowing it was the update I tried fixing it unsuccessfully and I could’ve saved some time and nerves.
