For Global Accessibility Awareness Day, we want to recognize the work being done on accessibility by @matt as part of the @gnome Foundation. He is the lead for @accesskit and is currently working on Newton, a Wayland-oriented solution for assistive technologies that can modernize accessibility on the Linux desktop!

Fedora CoreOS is great for the server use case, but it might be tricky for someone new to it. How does it use rpm-ostree? What is Butane? What are Ignition files? But once you get going, it might be your new favorite way to manage a homelab (and more)!

As we make our five (now four) year plan more concrete, we want to come back to the high level goal and measures that help us to understand what we are doing, why, and if we are being effective.

TL;DR - We’re going to double the number of contributors who are active every week.

@blaise could you share more about that? Is it that once you felt you understood how to contribute the ways to contribute changed?

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.

Learn more and get involved! https://fedoramagazine.org/get-involved-with-fedora-bootable-containers/

@fedora@fosstodon.org avatar

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!

@fedora@fosstodon.org avatar

@moashy_mango BlueBuild may be able to help with that, but Fedora MATE could also be an option. If you have more specific feedback on the state of accessibility in Fedora, please let us know.

Anyone from images are they all long term supported if not which one is considered LTS? I don't know much about Fedora or its ecosystem. Been mostly debian/ubuntu/arch linux over the decades.

fedora,
@fedora@fosstodon.org avatar

@Corb_The_Lesser @talesofaprinny Nailed it. In this example, if you're on Fedora 40 you know that you have one month after the release of Fedora 42 to upgrade and stay on a supported version. That's why 13 months to give a little extra time.

What some people do is hang back one major release. So if you start with Fedora 40, skip Fedora 41 and only upgrade to F41 once F42 release. That way you're still getting new stuff to you every 6 months, but it's 6 months after it's been out in the wild.

fedora,
@fedora@fosstodon.org avatar

@Corb_The_Lesser @talesofaprinny It may be a little more involved to specifically choose one version to upgrade to vs another, and unfortunately outside the scope of what I as the person writing this post knows.

Bluefin from @UniversalBlue manages this for users so that you will always be one version behind the latest major release by design. Might be the easiest way to run your system at that pace.
