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.

The Fedora Project is taking rpm-ostree and atomic systems to the next level with our bootc community initiative!

The goal is to evolve Fedora Atomic Desktops, Fedora CoreOS, and Fedora IoT to incorporate bootable containers. You will get the benefit of an atomic OS on your computer while unlocking a world of customization through the cloud native development model.

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!

Time to formally welcome @bluebuild to the Fediverse!

This is the project that makes it easier for you to make your own custom images of Fedora Atomic Desktops.

If you've wondered how to use an atomic system while still being able to customize and tinker, this is another good place to learn more!

Besides introducing a new brand, Fedora Atomic Desktops had some specific updates to it in the Fedora 40 release.

As a refresher, we're talking about Silverblue, Kinoite, Sway Atomic (was Sericea), and Budgie Atomic (was Onyx) - all under one umbrella!

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!

The uBlue maintainers also have a message they want to share for @fedora :)

Silverblue and Fedora Atomic users - here's a guide on how to rebase to Fedora 40.

The graphical example used is for Silverblue, but if you follow the terminal instructions they will work on any Fedora Atomic Desktop. Just pay attention to use the name of your variant where applicable.

If anything goes bad, you can rollback to Fedora 39. Additionally you can pin your current image if you need to go back after a few updates.

"Due to a bug in rpm-ostree, the '/etc/[g]shadow[-]' files in Fedora CoreOS, Fedora IoT and Fedora Atomic Desktops have the world-readable bit set.

To fix impacted systems immediately, run the following command as root:
$ chmod --verbose 0000 /etc/shadow /etc/gshadow /etc/shadow- /etc/gshadow-

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.

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. :)
https://www.theverge.com/24090470/playtron-gaming-os-linux-handhelds-exclusive

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

Startup company Playtron is looking to be the default OS for future handheld PCs to rival Windows... but they're doing it with Fedora Atomic Desktops!
https://www.theverge.com/24090470/playtron-gaming-os-linux-handhelds-exclusive

Seems like it's early days and not a sure thing, but they are in talks with hardware vendors like Ayaneo.

It's great to see Fedora Atomic helping to pave the way for free and open source operating systems on handheld PCs!

As part of the Fedora COSMIC effort that is going on, the lead maintainer of that has spun up a pre-alpha, for-testing-only Fedora COSMIC image that we're hosting. If this excites you, consider contributing to make it an official spin!

realizing I've probably done more customization of my setup since switching to a Fedora Atomic system than when I used traditional mutable systems

i know i've mentioned them quite a bit lately, but, really,

, , are all fantastic and I can't imagine ever wanting to use a traditional, "mutable" Linux-based OS ever again

The world of Fedora Atomic grows with BlueBuild, a spin-off of @UniversalBlue that is a newly independent project!

If you've been wanting to build or maintain your own custom image of Fedora Atomic Desktops, this may be another way to explore that interest. Instead of editing a containerfile, you work on a recipe that is then transformed into a containerfile to make the process of getting started easier.

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.
