I think the newer immutable distros will become the more mainstream option.

In practice it behaves more like a phone where you use sandboxed apps and the base system cannot be modded.

However on immutable distros you can make changes to the system but only with a specific method. This is how the Steam Deck is setup and I can see it working very well for the average user.
