Fedora Silverblue 40 is out today. If you have rpm-fusion layered so you can’t upgrade through GNOME Software, run these commands in Terminal:

  1. Pin current version:

sudo ostree admin pin 0

  1. Handle rpm-fusion nastiness:

rpm-ostree update --uninstall rpmfusion-free-release --uninstall rpmfusion-nonfree-release --install rpmfusion-free-release --install rpmfusion-nonfree-release

  1. Rebase to Fedora Silverblue 40:

rpm-ostree rebase fedora:fedora/40/x86_64/silverblue

Note that I just encountered the following issue:

https://github.com/fedora-silverblue/issue-tracker/issues/536

Which I worked around by removing mozilla-openh264 before running the rebase again, at which point it succeeded:

rpm-ostree remove mozilla-openh264

Just rebooted and I’m up and running with Fedora Silverblue 40.

(Just tried reinstalling mozilla-openh264 – so videos work in Firefox – but it failed with the same error. Not a big deal, I’m using @Vivaldi as my main browser these days anyway and I guess the Fedora folks will fix this in time.)

More importantly, I wonder if the screen reader has been fixed yet. (Yes, Fedora ships with a broken screen reader.)

Firefox is in trouble.

Ideally, I usually prefer to promote good news, as opposed to bad news, especially when I am passionate about a project or development. I am a firm believer in both herd mentality and self-fulfilling prophecies.

I want to make it clear, my primary web browser of choice is still Firefox and I still regularly contribute to Mozilla.

But as I said, and I hate to write this, Mozilla Firefox is in trouble.

@Linux_Is_Best yeah, I refuse and go out of my way to yeet the from because the only way to stop is to not be part of it and openly fight against it!
