Let's try Fedora Silverblue - an immutable desktop OS! - Adam Šamalik

Developing everything in containers? Then you might be ready for Fedora Silverblue - an immutable desktop OS built for container workflows! Silverblue is built on top of rpm-ostree providing atomic upgrades, easy rollbacks, and even installing individual packages when necessary. Come for a quick overview covering the basics of rpm-ostree, Flatpak (containerized graphical application), and the overall experience of using a container-oriented desktop.

Thanks for the video! Fedora Silverblue is the future.

Very nice project

I can barely... contain... my excitement. XD

You might consider scaling your excitement out horizontally with replication controller. :D

I think I just realized how every proprietary OS works.

[@ayyllama2735]

anyone having issues with the appstore in silverblue not working? Icons show up as blank and when I check rpm-ostree it says transaction in progress.

All the time and resources wasted in developing something as useless as this, could've been used to improve things that we actually need, like Wayland and Vulkan.

[@stellarorbit1341]

This is what redhat wants. Think of it from a technical support standpoint. If someone calls because their system is broken, redhat will know it's probably affecting everyone. It can completely rollback this update and the issue is gone without having to keep a log of system restore images. In my experience with an amd graphics card, Wayland works perfect except for one small thing. I have used arch exclusively for 7ish years, but I might try this out since I probably am going to have to reinstall arch soon enough anyway because of a broken kernel module that won't uninstall.

Yeah just like your life

Perhaps you lack the context / experience to understand the tremendous value this type of system offers. If it is such a waste, why is Intel also using the same approach with their Linux OS? Do you really think both Intel and RedHat have a poor idea of what problems sysadmins face and how they might *BEST* be solved?
That said I 100% agree that way more effort should be placed on Wayland development and adding some basic features and polish to GNOME like rotate in Photos, drag and drop with File Roller in a Wayland session, Calendar (3.36.0) is broken again and seems to fail with non local calendars.
