Someone should fork Aurora, slap a few EU OS logos and call it a day.
Is this somehow different or better than Linux Mint or Fedora KDE? I'm not a big Linux guy but I have Fedora KDE Plasma on my desktop and am considering switching to Aurora/Mint on my Microsoft Surface laptop. I wasn't able to find much info on Aurora outside of their website
Aurora is Fedora KDE (specifically Kinoite, the KDE version of Silverblue) with a couple QoL tweaks and tools. I've been very happy with it! Though all the atomic Fedora versions are awesome, can't go wrong with any of them.
See this comment I made recently.
Based on Fedora Kinoite and immutable OS images. OpenSUSE has something similar called MicroOS, but server focused.
This is a frontline of next gen Linux desktops that will revolutionize the way we maintain them. I am a Debian veteran of over 12 years and now I use Aurora at home. This is the way.
Opensuse has also now the Aeon for desktop use, whose first release is at Release Candidate 4. It is based on MicroOS concept.
Nice to know!
Yeah, but you can't layer packages over MicroOS as easily. This is why Ublue has been gaining a lot of traction.
One example: the same day that Fedora 42 was released, the whole set of Ublue distros automatically shipped their updated versions, Bazzite 42 was on my PC the same day as upstream was released.
Insanely Fast.
Out of curiosity: do you have some notification on Bazzite that automatic update was downloaded and reboot is required? Or is this totally stealth? And should it all be automatic or ‘ujust update’?
