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!

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:

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!

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.

Hello. Yes, sometimes, setting things up is a challenge, however, things are improving. The QT environment variables are definitely not needed for QT 6, and likely 5. Same can be said about GTK_MODULES, which are not needed at least from GTK 3.Fedora Discussion
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.

Kernel param tsc=reliable results in big speedups (up to 30% in browser benchmarks) but unsure if it impacts stability :/
Unfiltered Flathub is approved to be provided as a third party repo you can enable for Fedora 38! In the next release, if you enable Flathub as a third party repo, you will get everything on Flathub and not just the Fedora Flatpaks.

I know it is not going to resonate much with people in English speaking countries, but this has been a major issue for people who use alphabets with special characters (my native Czech included).
For years #PDF viewers on #Linux such as #Evince couldn't save characters outside the basic charsets in PDF forms. It turned out to be a complex problem and multi-year effort, but it's finally done and you can use unicode in PDF forms. First available in #Fedora 37 where we've already backported it.
The #CreativeFreedomSummit will start in 4 days, January 17-19!
Over 100 people have joined us in our Matrix/Element chat room from which the event will be streamed, and we look forward to chatting with you.
(Learn more here: creativefreedomsummit.com/)
We'll be covering @kdenlive, @Blender, @penpot, @inkscape, @GIMP, and @krita.
but that's not all... (1/2)

The #Fedora Project uses @matrix for our instant messaging needs (with IRC bridges also).
While the default experience is with #Element, there are several other neat Matrix clients you can use.
#Fractal, @neochat, and #Nheko are some great options to check out!
Then you can check out Fedora's Matrix room as well: matrix.to/#/#fedora:fedoraproj…
You're invited to talk on Matrix. If you don't already have a client this link will help you pick one, and join the conversation. If you already have one, this link will help you join the conversationmatrix.to
I’m not going to use bloody bugzilla, so if anyone from Mozilla sees this, your enterprise flow for adding certificate authorities (CAs) to Firefox on Linux fails on Fedora Silverblue.
Since Fedora Silverblue is seen as the possible future of Fedora/Red Hat, you folks might want to talk to the Fedora folks about it and come up with a solution.

I'm experimenting with running my whole #swaywm desktop from a user #podman #container on top of e.g. #Fedora IoT. Works surprisingly well already.
The only dealbreaker is that the container does not receive kernel uevents, i.e. it does not see any kind of hw change. It already uses --network=host and bind-mounts /dev.This is also broken in standard #toolbx. Does anybody know a trick to get that?

Mouse cursor was totally wonky after this Saturday's #Fedora 37 upgrade. Some package bisecting led me to #GTK 3 apparently a discontinued cursor theme, and me having ancient settings in dconf. #regression
#Fedora 37 je venku! 🎉
My jsme neuváženě těsně před vydáním přesouvali stránky na nový hosting, takže zatím můžeme posloužit jen oficiálním anglickým oznámením. 🙈

Today I’m excited to share the results of the hard work of thousands of Fedora Project contributors: the Fedora Linux 37 release is here! Let’s see what the latest release brings you.Matthew Miller (Fedora Project)
#Fedora 38 is looking at providing #phosh image For mobile devices.
The Phosh (Phone Shell) has been started by Purism.
We're happy to see broader adoption of the #freesoftware on #mobilelinux 🚀

It looks like Fedora could be taking on more mobile ambitions with a Phosh image now proposed for running that Wayland shell focused on smartphones and tablets while delivering a good GNOME-based experiencewww.phoronix.com
#Fedora 37 (pre)release party. Ta se bude konat v Národní technické knihovně, která nebyla vybraná náhodně. Je tam totiž pravděpodobně největší nasazení Fedora Workstation v zemi.
So remember how I was saying you shouldn’t have to know or care if your operating system is immutable for an immutable operating system to be usable by everyday folks? (You know, clever folks, like brain surgeons and astronauts, not just your regular garden variety tech hobbyist with time to spare following instructions from a wiki.)
Seems others think so too… #VanillaOS sounds very promising. #Fedora #Silverblue folks should take some notes.
Vanilla OS is an On-Demand immutable Linux based distribution which aims to provide a vanilla GNOME experience.vanillaos.org
