Looking for a new laptop that runs Linux out of the box? Get a ThinkPad!
Lenovo has been offering ThinkPads with Fedora and @ubuntu preinstalled for a few years now. The more people who shop for these devices, the more attention they can give to this business!
Here's an article of someone discovering Lenovo's Linux program: news.itsfoss.com/lenovo-cuts-w…

Building your own Atomic (bootc) Desktop - Fedora Magazine
Bootc and associated tools provide the basis for building a personalised desktop. This article will describe the process to build your own custom installation.Daniel Mendizabal (Fedora Project)
Besides welcoming our new, developing spin in the form of Fedora COSMIC Atomic, we had a few more updates from the Atomic Desktop side of the project.
The main change is the implementation of composefs which brings you "the reliability of disk images with the flexibility of files." This and many of the changes are under the hood to help keep the system stable while introducing more flexibility to users and maintainers.
We continue down the roadmap to bootc!

What’s new for Fedora Atomic Desktops in Fedora 42 - Fedora Magazine
Description of new variants of Fedora Atomic Desktops, and new features and changes in current variants.Timothée Ravier (Fedora Project)
Certain models of Lenovo laptops now ship with Fedora and Ubuntu Linux. This is done to keep costs low and cater to developers or IT professionals who heavily rely on Linux. Another reason could be the increased unpopularity of Windows 11 in recent times due unwanted features like "AI" or "Recall", but that is just my own wild guess ;) LOL. Would you buy it?

Introducing Fedora Project Leader Jef Spaleta - Fedora Magazine
Hello everyone! Current Fedora Project Leader Matthew Miller here, with some exciting news! A little while ago, I announced that it’s time for a change of hats. I’m going to be moving on to new things (still close to Fedora, of course).Matthew Miller (Fedora Project)
Hi folks, I'm trying to jumpstart federation on my little gotosocial instance and get a more full feed of things to read and interact with.
I could use your help. If you could boost this, I would appreciate it. If you see this and favorite it, I will follow you if your interests seem to align with mine.
I'm not asking for follows... rather I'm asking for you to help me shout out into the ether that I'M looking for people to follow. My main interests are going to be hashtagged below.
By the way, the way hashtags work here is that currently, if I search, I only see what my server is already knows about... which would mean just the folks I follow, since I'm a single-user instance. Not very helpful 😂
I will also be using one of my apps that can load the main feed from other servers, to see if I see something interesting. If you see a follow from me and come here to check me out... I mean you no harm and I come in peace.
Thanks all!

How can you get started in the Fedora community? You can introduce yourself on our forum at Fedora Discussion! We love to meet new people and help them find a place within the project.
Interesting behaviour: When downloading and opening a .flatpakref file in GNOME Software, it offers to install the flatpak from the remote fedora instead of the one referenced in the .flatpakref file. I could just observe it with the org.gimp.GIMP which is 3.0.0 in flathub but 3.0.0RC3 in fedora.
If someone reads this and can tell me where to report this I'd report it as a bug as it's unexpected behaviour.
Still using PulseAudio? Here is an introduction to @pipewire to get you familiar with how it works.

The Fedora Project is looking for a new git forge to move to, and right now the preference is toward @forgejo over GitLab. We're looking for feedback one more time from the community before the Fedora Council has a vote on it!

I use an RSS feed for news, and I’m sure I’m not the only one here on the Fediverse who appreciates the convenience it offers, because it helps me stay informed in a way that suits my preferences.
How do you keep up with the important topics that matter to you?
I’d love to hear your thoughts!

I had a talk called "Unbreakable Linux for Entire Family" today. It had nothing to do with Oracle #Linux, it was about concepts and approaches around #Fedora #Silverblue to make a truly free ChromeOS-like system for friends and family.
I was happy to have a full room of people. It's good to see #OpenAlt bouncing back in terms of attendance.
The recording of the talk (in Czech) is already available online:

Do you use any of our Fedora Labs? These are spins of Fedora that are set up with specific use cases in mind.
We have labs for:
* Astronomy
* Neuroscience
* Design
* Gaming
* Music
* And more!
The Fedora Linux 41 Beta is here!
As exciting as the new features are, please remember that this is primarily for testing. Help us make this release as smooth as possible by directing your feedback to the Fedora Quality Team (info in the article).
Please also help to circulate this in the accessibility community as we want to catch any bugs related to their needs as soon as possible.
Happy testing!
Oh, thank goodness not having a fully functional screen reader isn’t a blocker for Fedora 41. We wouldn’t want them to miss their 10th anniversary of shipping an operating system without a fully functional screen reader, after all.

I just retired #Python 2.7 from #Fedora Rawhide. This concludes a transition we started 10+ years ago.
Please take this survey about AI/ML and Fedora. We know that this is a sensitive subject, so the Fedora Council spent time putting a survey together to understand what our community thinks about this area of technology.
Last day to take the survey is July 31.

Hello folks, I had posted this to the original discussion thread last week, but to make sure everyone is aware of its existence, I wanted to post it in this section too.Fedora Discussion
Okay, I think I fixed the link.
So, this is like, one of the first times I've done this, but I wanted to show a bit of installing Fedora Linux on my laptop. I'd already started the installation, but it shows most of it, and a bit of setup afterwards. I recorded this on my iPhone, so it won't sound the best. A few things I forgot to mention:
* You cannot buy IBM Viavoice (Eloquence) for Linux anymore, but it's of course still floating around.
* We also have DecTalk on Linux, obvious from the BTSpeak using it.
* You can also get Vocalizer voices.
* There's also Piper of course.

#Linux #UX bugs like this are frustrating: starting a drag action pops the window forward, obscuring the target window. I'm using latest #Fedora but apparently this happens on nearly all DEs.
The smaller your display is (and the more nontechnical you are) the more likely you'll hit this. Apparently this has been known for a long time and no one cares to fix it? I'm just curious why.
"Not enough programmers" isn't a good excuse, this is a fairly easy fix. @cassidy Devs only use Terminal?

Fedora has an ableism problem but woe to you if you point it out.Aral Balkan
“Buh, Aral, #Fedora is a volunteer project… you a nasty bum-bum criticising us for shipping an operating system without a functional screen reader by default for EIGHT YEARS…”
Meanwhile, in reality: “The Fedora Project is not a separate legal entity or organization; Red Hat retains liability for its actions.”
Who owns Red Hat?
#IBM.
What is IBM? A 150 billion-dollar corporation.
Cut the “we’re volunteers” bullshit, acknowledge your ableist culture, and do better.
For eight years Fedora has been shipping GNOME with a broken screen reader!
EIGHT YEARS!
(Wayland has been default on Fedora for eight years – since Fedora 25, released in 2016.)
And a hundred-billion-dollar corporation like IBM ships operating systems today based on it with a broken screen reader.
What is an ableist culture? One in which the people who call this out get ostracised.

The Fedora Quality Team is joining Week of Diversity with an Accessibility Test Week!
Much like other Test Days, the goal of this week is to put Fedora through its paces and catch as many accessibility related issues as we can for our disable users. If you want to put your advocacy to action, consider participating!
The Accessibility Test Week runs from Jun 19-25, starting tomorrow.

Two Silverblue systems here got hit by the secure boot signature bootloader bug on the upgrade that brought in a new kernel. Good thing there are rollbacks (to boot an older version) and a workaround.
