Big thank you to @dogphilosopher for an update to flatpaks on Bluefin. Now flatpaks can be preinstalled from the ISO rather than having to download them on first boot in order to provide the intended experience. That means @thunderbird on the dock by default!

Awesome step forward for us to be able to bring you intended apps by default without straying from @flathub

If you can help with testing the new ISOs, please see below for instructions.

🚨 ⚠️ Emergency PSA: A critical security exploit was discovered in the xz package recently, used for compression and decompression on nearly all Linux distributions.

Rawhide users ARE impacted and should immediately STOP using Rawhide until the package update is fully rolled back. (1/3)

I put together recording setup guide for Fedora Linux using OBS Studio. Only GUI, not messing with config files.

Wrote a blog post talking about the developments with PipeWire camera support in applications and also the FireWire FFADO support. If you read my previous tweets about this there is not to much new in the blog post.

A few days ago I talked about why I chose #Fedora #Silverblue and how finding the right environment for me would be a motivation to contribute to #OpenSource projects, something I've always wanted to do. Well... I finally made it! 🎉

I've implemented a small feature (link below) in #Errands, the best to-do app for #GNOME. It's already merged so it will appear in a future version! ✅

Yes, it's a modest first step, but also an impulse to keep supporting projects I like! 😊

Keep testing the OBS and Firefox PipeWire camera support. Screenshot below is Firefox and OBS sharing a camera through PipeWire and also OBS embedding the Firefox window plus also having my USB HDMI capture screen included. #pipewire #linux #obsstudio #fedora #flatpak


With todays release of @OBSProject 30.1.0, which of course is available as a Flatpak, I was finally able to have Helvum display this for video streams through @pipewirep. I have to admit I did have some issues, but hopefully we can iron those out quickly in PipeWire and @libcamera. #linux #pipewire #fedora

Really happy to see first beta release of @OBSProject featuring PipeWire camera support. Along with the recent Firefox support for PipeWire camera this is a big step forward.

The Fedora Pride team is hosting a @Minetest gaming event tomorrow, Jan 27 at 7pm UTC (2pm EST)!

Minetest is an open source game inspired by Minecraft. If you've never given it a shot and are looking for that 'first time playing Minecraft' experience again, come join us!

Hey, is the feature "combine sinks" still there? I could not get it to work on Fedora, but having dual Bluetooth output would be great.

Fedora Magazine got an interview up of Wim Taymans about the PipeWire 1.0 release and plans going forward.

Want to test out Firefox using PipeWire for camera handling?
@jgrulich has made this Fedora COPR available for you to help us test! copr.fedorainfracloud.org/copr… #linux #fedora #pipewire #firefox


Today I'll probably be posting a bit more from the #OpenAlt conference. If you're not interested in it, use that great feature of Mastodon and mute me for the weekend.
I'll be giving two talks at OpenAlt:
Fedora Asahi Remix: Linux on Apple Silicon
Fediverse: Mastodon and Others

I'll be happy to meet you at the #Fedora booth or at my talks. If you cannot come, you can watch the talks online (they're in Czech though): openalt.cz/2023/program/


It looks like Fedora 39 torrents are live a bit early. 👀 It seems like a good choice for my father-in-law's recently-liberated EOL Chromebook!

After downloading, I've already seeded to a 1:1 ratio; if you have some spare bandwidth, you can join in, too!

I letos nás najdete na #OpenAlt. Jako již tradičně budeme mít #Fedora stánek a můžete si taky poslechnout přednášky @sesivany o Fedoře na Apple Siliconu a @lzap o instalaci Fedory z obrazu disku pomocí projektu #Forester.


Dnes a zítra nás najdete na #LinuxDays. Zastavte se na kus řeči, vzít si nějaký #Fedora swag nebo se podívat, jak Fedora běží na Macbooku s procesorem od Applu.
#RedHat #Linux


Zajímá vás, jak běží #Fedora a #Linux obecně na počítačích s procesory od Applu? Zastavte se tento víkend na našem stánku na @linuxdays. Budeme tam mít Macbook Pro s Fedora Asahi Remixem.

Thanks! (Can I claim a third pack by reporting a bug my patch introduced? :D)

I think Month of LibreOffice & the sticker packs are a great way to get more people involved long-term - after all the first patch/translation/bug report is often the most cumbersome one due to all the setup overhead.

I always try to lower the barriers I bump into along the way, eg. submitted this patch to #fedora to include all build debs ootb:
src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/lib…

Official #flatpak build env when?

Fedora Linux 38 will release on Tuesday, April 18!

We've hit the early target dates for our beta and stable releases, so props to the Fedora community. And thanks to all who helped with testing!

Nice! Do you also have #Fedora and #Debian in mind? Hope this hasn’t been answered before.


Found this on other account. Please boost for reach: Fedora Linux is focusing on accessibility for the next five years. I'd love to see people with disabilities, very much including blind people, comment on this. If you're interested in Linux, or free and open source software, your voices are valuable. I hope Fedora finds our voices valuable too.

Just a note for people hesitating to try #DNF5 - I have been trying it for more than half a year. And in the past few months, I have not found any issues. So I use it as a default. And it is much faster. DNF5 is present in #Fedora 38, and for older Fedoras, there is #Copr repository fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes…


If you're interested in talking or collaborating with contributors to the Fedora Project, this is how you can join the conversation!

We have @matrix channels bridged to IRC for real time chat. We have the Fedora Discussion forum for long form conversations.

Both can be accessed with a Fedora account you can create, but Matrix is also available from other accounts since it is federated.

I am profiling #GNOME Shell (MASSIVE thanks to #fedora enabling frame pointers for all packages in 38 making this possible) and noticed clock_gettime() taking up a huge chunk. Turns out I hit
bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.c…: many #AMD laptops are forced to use a very slow clock source (HPET instead of TSC). #Lenovo fixed it with a BIOS update for some laptops but not mine. :sadness: Kernel param tsc=reliable results in big speedups (up to 30% in browser benchmarks) but unsure if it impacts stability :/
