Right, updated to #fedora 42 beta, so far only problem is it lost my xfce desktop background solid colour; shrug.
(Note the dnf upgrade command to reboot and install is slightly different from older versions; read the prompt it tells you!)

In the wake of #unplugTrump, I asked #Distrowatch which #Linux distributions originated in #Europe. I confess that I left out the eastern countries. There were only six results, five of which were based on #Debian. Whether #Arch #Debian or #Fedora, how strong or extensive is the American influence anyway? Isn't it more about individual software or services themselves, such as #Firefox or #Google? #Microsoft and its #Windows should of course be banned in principle. But as an #ArchLinux user, should I change my system because of this?

Linux Is Best

I am really upset (mix if disappointment, sad, a little angry) with Ultramarine Linux.

They've released a solid distro release since Fedora v34 or v35. They've been going strong for years, and then "poof".

Every time, there is finally a good distro for newbie, the development geeks out. This is why there is no Year of The Linux Desktop. Your Grandma is not going to learn the terminal, and if she does, it will be because she first had that Windows-like experience, the same why some Windows users eventually learned Microsoft PowerShell.

Linux needs a dumb pipe distro. Something so point and click easy, that if I themed it like Windows or Apple, the newbie would not know the difference. Ironically, there has been several such type of distros. But they all "geek out" and lose themselves.

NO, we did not need you to waste time on making your own hardware (that didn't go anywhere, did it?). No, most people are not trying to flash a Chromebook device (it is a niche user base). No, you did not need to focus on ARM64 support (also still a niche user base). All this would not have been a problem, if you did not try to start all of this at the same time, while also trying to develop a new installer.

As I said, they "geeked out" and likely burned out. Time and resource management is not something Linux developers are good at. Because I see this happen with so many promising developments.

Fedora Project

Bootc as a project is one with tons of promise and lots of community support. It's what is powering the next generation of Atomic Desktops, CoreOS, and Fedora IoT, not to mention all of the work that @UniversalBlue has done to show off everything that can be done today.

If you want to follow bootc more closely, regular updates from Fedora's end are shared here. :)
