Personally, I've really enjoyed using bootc for both my personal laptop and my NAS.

I really like the NAS use case because I can build the ZFS kmods for that specific version of Fedora CoreOS in CI/CD. If there's any compatibility failure, then my NAS doesn't get an update and I get the CI/CD failed email. No downtime because of some kernel incompatibility.

For the laptop though, I feel like there's a better way that I haven't found. Some way not to require CI/CD, to build the next image and switch to it all locally. I haven't gone down that path yet, but it looks kinda like that Option 2 the author described. Maybe it's really just that easy.

I've really been enjoying this space.
