Huge shootout to the Distrobox devs, you saved my day :)
I brew beer as a hobby. I’ve been using Joliebulle 3 for close to 10 years because it’s FOSS and super simple to use, and I’m too lazy to switch to another brewing app. It’s been unmaintained for almost 5 years, but it wonderfully does exactly what I want from a brewing software. I was missing this crucial “piece of equipment” since I migrated to Fedora.
Brew day is tomorrow. I forgot to look into it until it was almost too late.
If you switch to Arch, this is waiting for you in AUR 😊.

I know you said you’re too lazy to switch to a different brewing app, but you should really check out kleiner Brauhelfer
Oh thanks, I’ll check it out.
That has to be the most German piece of software in existence
There’s also Brewtarget.
I daily drive Fedora Silverblue on my laptop and distrobox has been great.
I have layered only two packages: USB Guard and Distrobox. I run syncthing in a rootless podman container, and the rest goes through Distrobox.
I was even able to setup ProtonVPN in distrobox and it functions as if it was directly installed on the host (just need to map your home folder and some permissions).
I hope that immutable becomes either the standard or at least all major distros start offering it as an alternative. Makes everything foolproof and makes me much more willing to try new packages and tools because I can always just roll back.
The only thing that would really make it perfect is if files in /etc/ where also handled in a similar manner. IE: Can make changes to configuration files, and easily roll back to defaults at any time.
