Been curious about what it's like to use Bluefin? Here's a quick tour of it, walking through some of the main changes we make to Silverblue! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_yyyUMecwo
For more stability, the Bluefin custom image defaults to GTS (grand touring support), meaning that we hang back one release of Fedora. It brings stability in general, but specifically to all the GNOME extensions we use.
Universal Blue is generally available today! We're out of beta and ready to showcase everything a Linux desktop can be. Our work has been to show how many problems in client Linux are already solved from the cloud native world. We hope you'll join us on this journey!
Super excited about @kde Plasma 6 releasing today! It won't be too long before the beta for Fedora 40 becomes available for testing, which will include Plasma 6 for Fedora KDE and Kinoite.
For those looking for ways to contribute to KDE on Fedora, here's a ticket you can start with! It's for updating Fedora KDE Flatpaks to the KF6 runtime from KF5.
Yesterday at Red Hat Summit @jorge and @cgwalters presented to a full house of Red Hat employees to walk through the state of atomic / image-based Linux and where we can go from here.
Fedora and Red Hat are looking at what we're doing with bootable containers and are interested in carrying that forward!
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'm looking to make rusticl the default for AMD and Intel users; it works well on my own system with an RX 6600XT, but I need more testing than just my own results to make this the default. We also need to check whether this breaks anything for Nvidia users.
Awesome news! Bluefin and Bazzite are now community supported Linux offerings for @frameworkcomputer laptops!
Congrats to @UniversalBlue for the achievement. 👏👏👏 We're glad to see that our work with Framework and in Fedora Atomic Desktops is enabling other communities to thrive!
