Yeah new to guix here but I think flatpak is the suggested and reasonable approach to combine with immutable desktops

Some lemmy specific improvements submitted for the maintainers to review 😌

Might be worth looking into immutable distros (nix, guix) and their home management systems, or containerised apps (flatpak, where you can inject config). A lot of tools are hardcoded to non standard locations so it’s kind of a losing battle by default. A similar strategy would be to use permissions or mount certain folders as read only.

Yay more options
