       I continue:- to occasionally muck about with my #Fedora #Kinoite & #oS #MicroOS VMs. - my scepticism that immutables have any credible use FOR ME. - to find more Cons than Pros. Here's another i just rediscovered today.In ALL my "std" #KDEPlasma systems [multiple distros, both my PCs, multiple VMs] one of my most-used apps is #Yakuake, [dropdown terminal]. I want this also in my immutables.K & M don't have it ootb. It's not in [real] #Flathub. HOW do i install it, yet stay "immutable"?

       @dropbear42 Never used (or until now even knew what) Yakuke was. And also new to immutable like you. But I’m thinking if installing distrobox, then install Yakuke there, and last point is to check out ‘distrobox-export’ command which then copies a app/binary/service to the host if this might work. I really have no confirmation if this would even work. Just a thought so wanted to share it. #Fedora #Kinoite #Silverblue

       @Pjol Yes, good point - thx. I have experimented with #distrobox a little bit in prior months, in some of my other [but only non-immutable] VMs. I need to get MUCH more "comfy" with DB, coz [blush] i keep kinda sorta "forgetting" about it, & when i remember, i begin quaking in terror. I mean, i'm exaggerating, just to stress that i need to get better with it.

       @Pjol Yes dropdown terminals are fabulously useful! Even more when you then play with H & V splitting.
