Anyone know of a tool like Multipass (github.com/canonical/multipass) but for Fedora (and, ideally, Fedora CoreOS). So you can, for example, easily play with instance configuration, etc., locally?

I know I can use libvirt (and I did set it up after quite a struggle) but it’s a huge hassle in comparison.

Oh great, looks like Fedora has lost hardware-accelerated video support BECAUSE PATENTS… ffs!

Does anyone have a contact we can talk to at Hetzner to get them working with Fedora CoreOS so it’s supported as a first-class citizen on their platform?

The Fedora CoreOS folks are on board, now we just need someone from Hetzner.

Ah, interesting, so maybe the error message is wrong?

Has anyone gotten Fedora Silverblue working on the Pinebook Pro?

I got it to work! You need to first install Tow-Boot to the Pinebook spi flash (Getting Started | Tow-Boot).

Accessibility in Fedora Workstation

One area we realized we hadn't given so much focus recently was around technologies that allowed people with various disabilities to make use of our software.

So this is one of the coolest things about Fedora Silverblue (apart from the excellent stability, speed, and gorgeous stock GNOME 42): the first entry you see is today’s operating system. The second one is yesterday’s. If I wanted to, I could revert to the latter with a single command.

Response to “Flatpak Is Not the Future”

Late last year, this interesting article “[Flatpak Is Not the Future]” was published to the public, and very quickly grabbed the Linux community’s attention.

Fedora Silverblue is an immutable OS that I’ve been using for a few weeks now alongside the excellent Distrobox tool that lets you run multiple distribution containers from terminal. Still finding my feet but love the stability and speed so far.

Is it just me or can’t Fedora Silverblue install Flatpaks downloaded from the web (flatpakref) in GNOME Software?

(This is a valid, decentralised way of distributing software that doesn’t require centralised services like Flathub, etc. and should be supported as a first-class citizen in free and open operating systems.)

Tip: if you’re using the new GNOME Console and Fish shell, you don’t have to wait until the GNOME folks have colour schemes implemented if you want to customise yours.

fisher install FabioAntunes/base16-fish-shell

Then, in your console, type base16<tab> to see the list of different colour schemes you can try.

Not sure if there’s been a more recent update but this post on the future (and past) of Fedora Silverblue is very informative if you’re interested in learning more about this immutable OS that I’m loving so far.

Sadly, the IBus ctrl + . shortcut for inserting emoji also conflicts with GNOME’s ctrl + . shortcut for *drumroll* inserting emoji. So, when GNOME is being used, the distribution should really disable or change the IBus shortcut as GNOME’s graphical emoji picker overlay is far superior to the IBus’s.

Also, I think I’m going to end up changing 1Password’s shortcut as I want to be able to use the GNOME emoji picker popover on web forms too.
