It is by design non-invasive and should work on any distro which meets the requirements; Btrfs root and systemd-boot bootloader. With non-invasive I mean; it doesn’t mess with your normal OS and its configuration, it can be rolled out, toyed around with and just as easily be removed again.

Taken from reddit:

I think this is the best approach to immutability. I don’t want heavy abstraction and I don’t want containers.

A system I can deploy anytime and rollback on is all I needed.

When I have time, I will include this in my setup.

        Yeah, it’s also the same group of people who are always complaining about how much RAM a desktop environment or app uses, that app being whichever one they are using right now.

        I think flatpaks are good. The performance penalty for containerized software can be felt much more when you’re not using a good CPU. So containers do not “solve” my use case.

          I’m using a cpu from 2013 and gaming in containers seems to work as well as it does outside of containers.
