@vanillaos just come across your OS. Looks v interesting, though if Ubuntu based, and Ubuntu is very snap focussed, I dont understand how it can remain agnostic very long? I'm sure this is me being out of my depth, but when something sounds too good to be true, questions arise.

PS. You have an html bug under Customers (text goes outside viewable area on mobile). I can't send you screenshot bc I only visit sites that insist on tracker cookies (c'mon) in private browsing.

@artfulrobot yeah we are aware, we’ll release a rewrite of that website on the next weeks. Thanks for reporting anyway 💙 for Vanilla os instead, it is based on Ubuntu but Vanilla OS 2 which will be released soon, is based on Debian sid

A reminder that Vanilla OS, @pop_os_official , @elementary and many others, doesn’t impose snaps and still allows you to install your Deb files 😉

@arraybolt3 @pop_os_official @elementary there are still packages in the apt repo that install snaps instead of the actual software, no? Ubuntu IS actually pushing for snap, in a way or another. It’s fine, just some people does not really want to deal with snap at all

@arraybolt3 @pop_os_official @elementary so installing the whole snap ecosystem while requesting Firefox is not an enforcement? I really really want to believe in that statement but in that case I would suggest to put effort on fixing bugs in upstream debs or alert the user. We also suggest flatpak because apps are more secure, there is sandboxing, they are in sync with upstream.. but if the user ‘apt install’ it it’s because they want it to be a Deb not snap.

Do you like DEBs? Ubuntu 24.04 doesn't!

@vanillaos what is the current status of orchid? When I got my new @frameworkcomputer I wanted to try out vanilla but from what I read most people were not that happy...
Currently I'm on Fedora 39 atomic gnome!
Will there be a way of rebasing to vanilla? Both use oci images am I right? Looking forward to vanilla orchid stable!

@vanillaos@fosstodon.org avatar

@twojays @frameworkcomputer not happy of what? The feedback we received is very positive. For the rebase, no, silverblue and vanilla os sues two different technologies, they are not compatible.

Exactly one year ago we announced Legendary DE. Since then, developments have continued at full speed and we want to show you what we have achieved. Unfortunately it won't arrive in time for Orchid but we want to release it as a future update.

Our talk at SCaLE about immutability ended!
We are happy to have received many questions, the public was involved and enthusiastic, a great satisfaction.

Thank you all for participating. For those who missed it, there will soon be a video on YouTube and we will also publish the presentation on our website.

A special thank to @pietrodc0 who hosted the talk.

Fun fact: Vanilla OS 2 beta, despite the entire project rewrite and big differences under the hood, is more stable than Vanilla OS 22.10.

Fun fact 2: We are receiving far fewer bug reports than during the 22.10 beta period.

Thank you so much to everyone who is helping by testing Orchid!
