I mean we are kinda splitting hairs at this point, would you rather check, how to install something on a system that doesn’t break, or check how to restore your system that broke from you installing something once the next major update came along. This happened to me before and from my experience that’s exactly where the stability of immutable Distros shine.
Both can be argued for and against, I’m not saying one is better than the other.
If I were op I’d probably go cachyOS keep my eyes out on major e.g. fedora release updates and make at least manually important backups of the home folder. Just learn the feeling of Linux for a while. Given that OP stated they have little patience for fiddeling I’m sure they will come around to stable Debian or immutable releases eventually.
