The nice thing about atomic distros is switching operating systems is as easy as typing 'ostree rebase', and registering a secure boot key.

So if Bazzite did go that way you could have fedora running in under an hour and with flatpak most thing will just work.

I want to bear witness that I did exactly that when I downmoted one of my computers from 'gaming machine' to 'closet server'.

One `rpm-ostree rebase` from Bazzite to a server-oriented flavour of Fedora Silverblue and it's been running and updating flawlessly since then.

As I understand 'ostree rebase' between KDE and Gnome will lead to broken system.

Kinda, the config files of each other break stuff and those are kept by default

You can still fix them manually though, although that's probably not worth the effort in most cases
