I bet you can, get it from their github.


I was one of those nomadic users, every year, since 1998 with Mandrake Linux.
I have always been in love with the idea of an open source OS, but if I couldn’t game and work on it, it wasn’t ready. Every year, until Valve made it easy to game on Linux.
I made the switch when Proton was released and never looked back.
My point is, every time users go back to Windows, they have their own personal reasons, but those will some day not be the truth anymore.
ok, now try building an Aurora fork, and give us your take. Should be fairly easy for you.


Yeah, I just use Inkscape, I know it well and it’s very well maintained. But it’s overkill for most people.


Absoluletly. All my issues just disappeared, performance went way higher and the smoothness is even very noticeable on the desktop. On top of that there are things like Steam Game Mode that only work on AMD because of their FOSS driver.
NVIDIA has finally learned the lesson but they are a few years behind of AMD, it will take time for their FOSS driver to mature.


I did this.
From:
Intel i7 14700K + 3080 TI
To:
Ryzen 7700X + RX 7900 XTX.
The difference on Wayland is very big.


Android TV is FOSS, but given Google’s recent announcement I wouldn’t take it’s future openness for granted.
That said, I think it’s the best FOSS OS for TVs.
I’m on Proxmox because I don’t have time to learn my way around my entire homelab, so I need tutorials and Proxmox has the biggest community. I use Coolify for easy deployments and testing software.
Same thing with Docker, I don’t like it, but I can’t afford using an alternative yet.
But I wish I could get away with using Ublue core + cockpit + podman quadlets + QEMU/KVM. But man, the Fedora & Cockpit docs are so newbie unfriendly, and the Cockpit community is pretty much non-existant compared to Proxmox. There’s no one doing tutorials for it on youtube, while you can find a new PVE tutorial every single day.
My advice is go towards where your own priorities are. If you don’t want to support a certain mindset, just don’t. If you want to do it the manual way and learn everything you can, then go with Arch, they’ve got the greatest Linux wiki that has ever been written. If you want easy to follow tutorials stay with PVE. If you want an unbreakable system go with Ublue core or Ubuntu core (I’m personally not liking Canonical though).
Follow your thirst for knowledge, In a few years you’ll be a pro.


I daily drive Aurora on my work laptop on an external usb c m2 nvme ssd via a caddy. I love it.
Are you using devpods? It’s always been buggy for me.


I ran Arch for about a year and a half. It’s great, you get the freedom to do anything you want provided you have the time and will to learn. Bazzite is the exact opposite: you can’t do everything you might want, but you don’t need to learn anything, you can carelessly play around in the little playground they setup for you.
I use Bazzite on my 2 desktop PCs, Aurora on my work laptop booting from an external 1tb nvme ssd via an usb-C m2 caddy.
It’s pure bliss. I freaking love it. If Ublue ever disappears I’m fucked.
Do you use it? Do you know if it has some of the features I need the most?:
Winapps doesn’t do GPU passthrough so performance is just unbearable for Photoshop.
Your options:
I went with PS Web & Photopea.
Bazzite ships Flathub unfiltered.
Last update (which replaced Discover with Bazaar) changed that.
so no taking a precompiled binary and shipping that.
All FLOSS apps on Flathub are built on trusted platforms by default, in the open and verifiable. Same thing with Brew.
Not including proprietary software in the default config is a valid choice every distro has to make.
The sudden success of Bazzite comes from how easy it is to use.
