Homebrew is now installed for you with the latest images of Bluefin, Aurora, and Bazzite. We don't have to strongly recommend installing it anymore because it's right there!

Homebrew is a great package manager especially for CLI apps. Give it a whirl if you haven't already.

I did something to screw up my Nobara install quite some time ago, and have been waiting for Gnome 46 to land on some good distro to switch over and hopefully get my pc back to good standard.

After hearing good stuff about that's what I'm installing right now. Having high hopes. But they are lowered a bit by that bad installer. Can't remember last time I saw such a bad installer, and no live USB? What?

I hear new people come to Linux trough this distro? That's impressive!

3.0 is now out, based on 40.

Among all the patches we've shipped, my favorite is that HDR is now provided by the upstream AMD params and not based on Valve's patch set. Currently I'm working on making an EDID for the OLED so HDR works under 6 as well.

A security vulnerability was discovered in rpm-ostree, which Bluefin and Bazzite use as custom images of Fedora Atomic Desktops. Please see below for the latest on the fix: https://universal-blue.discourse.group/t/updates-needed-cve-2024-2905/1053

Our website got a redesign! No more looking like a documentation site - now Universal Blue has a slick landing page just like Bluefin and Bazzite.

Check it out! Tell a friend! https://universal-blue.org/

Q: Which is the best gaming Linux distro in the world?

A: The one that works for you. :)

Of course we're very excited about Bazzite and the unique ways it can address problems as a custom image of Fedora Atomic. However, we share lots of packages with other distros like Nobara and ChimeraOS.

One of the Bazzite maintainers wrote a great reply to this question in our forum: https://universal-blue.discourse.group/t/bazzite-vs-nobara/830

Bazzite is on The Verge's radar!

In this article about startup Playtron trying to enter the handheld OS market with a Fedora Atomic based solution, @seanhollister mentions that he's currently looking into Bazzite. Fingers crossed that it works out for him, because we think it's pretty great. :)

Playtron is going after the market we knew existed, which is why Bazzite exists. Good luck to them! Vendors, hit us up!

What's something you wish was included in Bazzite or Bluefin?

Well, it finally happened: broke on my workstation. Not even sure how or why, just was suddenly unable to login. (Yes, I've already attempted keyboard layout, CAPS lock, chroot, passwd, faillock, etc.)

Time to check out ...

Thank you for being an example of a new paradigm in desktop Linux! People are not ready for a future where image hopping is a thing!

Bazzite started as a SteamOS alternative to the Steam Deck. Cool. Expanding Bazzite to other handhelds? Makes sense. Making it available for general PC usage? Also good.

How about making a Bazzite VM and then streaming that content to a Logitech G Cloud?

@taoofmac did just that, as well as write a general review of the handheld. Pretty neat!

Do you wish you could run on an ASUS ROG or whatever your current rig is, but not sure where to start? Then check out ! It is an Linux distro based on Atomic from the group so you can focus more on gaming and less on being a sys admin for your gaming gear!
