@fedora Very nice! Thank you for this awesome linux distribution ;)

Angelo Schirinzi

@fedora I'm so curious to try it! Fedora is never banal and predictable in releasing new versions; there are always great new features, the result of quality work. It's a great example in the open source world.

Fedora Project

We're excited to bring you Fedora Workstation 41! Besides everything new landing in Fedora 41 like DNF 5, here are some new things you can look forward to in Workstation specifically:

* @gnome 47, with accent colors!
* IPU6 camera support
* Improved Nvidia support for Secure Boot
* Ptyxis as new Terminal app!

Today we're announcing a huge leap in gaming for Apple Silicon - you can now play AAA games on Fedora Asahi Remix!

The Fedora Asahi SIG is grateful to work closely with the @AsahiLinux project on making this possible.

This work leads the way for us to enable gaming on all Fedora Arm systems down the line!

@fedora @AsahiLinux Can you try FlightGear for me? You should have package in distro and it did not work last time I tried.
dabster291 :endeavourOS:

@fedora @AsahiLinux funny how in order to get games running on mac hardware, you have to install linux on it.

kontrollierterWahnwitz

@fedora @AsahiLinux That sound alike a huge step ahead. Congratulations! How is the graphic performance compared to the original macOS drivers? Are there any benchmarks?

Fedora Project

Fedora KDE users, you may want to check your updates. Plasma 6.2 should be waiting for you. :)

The Fedora KDE SIG is working on getting everything updated. If you don't have it available yet it should be there by the end of the week.

Thanks to the @kde community and our Fedora KDE SIG members specifically! :fedora: ❤️ :kdenew:

I normally try to wait until the end of my workday to apply updates, but here we go!
Russell S. Pfau

@fedora How do these sorts of updates work with rolling distros? Specifically, do you loose settings/customizations?

@fedora rebrand for almost* all "immutable" desktops, but ironically _not_ Silverblue (@gnome) _and_ Kinoite
(@kde) ✌️😏

Endless OS Foundation

@fedora congrats on the release, and excellent work from everyone from Fedora, GNOME, KDE, and beyond!

Scotty Trees

@fedora Burning an .iso right now for a fresh install, been looking forward to new gnome-shell/mutter for a while and with my intel/NVIDIA setup, once the new NVIDIA drivers land, I should be in Linux Gnome Nvidia Heaven!

Thanks to all the devs, volunteers, engineers, and everyone in between for making this happen, the work they all do is beyond appreciated, thank you! Now off I go to file a bunch of bug reports (kidding!) 😁

Fedora Project

ALL CLEAR for Fedora Rawhide and Fedora 40 Beta builds regarding the xz exploit. 👍

Things had stabilized soon after the initial security advisory, but we're now confirming that you can use Rawhide and Fedora 40 Beta safely as long as you have the latest updates or reinstall (which is not a bad idea to be safe).

Fedora 38 and 39 were never affected.

@fedora Since the Wine wayland driver was released, I'm daily driving Wayland. It's awesome!

Inaction Figure

@fedora Wayland didn't work on my T510 in Plasma until recently. Great work, #Wayland and #kde_plasma teams!

Patrick

@fedora need to use Synergy so stuck with x11 :blobcat_dame:

I use @fedora :fedora: btw and I used @archlinux :arch: once.

@fedora @archlinux unrelated but, does the FS in the hashtag stand for free software or something else? My brain first read it as file system :D

@fedora happy birthday! I've been a happy user since Fedora 4, which I installed for my master thesis when I was much younger 😂

Michael K Johnson

@fedora I've been reflecting today on a relatively short memo I wrote a bit over 20 years ago, describing why it was essential to Red Hat's long term success to build a community-driven Linux distribution, and what its essential characteristics would have to be, months before Warren so kindly agreed to let us use the #Fedora name he had used for his repository for extra packages for Red Hat Linux.

I've written many, many more words in my life, but probably none that have changed more lives.

I believe to this day that Red Hat Enterprise Linux without Fedora would have been a niche product.

Heads up for @gnome extension developers: you'll have a bit of extra work on your hands for the upcoming Fedora 39 release, as GNOME 45 is streamlining the way extensions are developed, moving to ESM modules.

If you haven't already, check this guide on how to port your work to the most recent version of the flagship desktop environment for Fedora Workstation!

@fedora The IBM 5150 is a very strange machine to use in this graphic.

@fedora
It was great that he shared all his code with everyone and not just his clients. And didn’t force them to withhold it.
That’s not for you guys in the community or even Red Hat which has always been fantastic but just…. #chooseYourBossCarefully

@fedora yeah
Also happy 28 years of windows

@fedora @AsahiLinux big news! congrats on the partnership Asahi team. hope this ensures a sustainable path for Linux on Apple Silicon.

@fedora @AsahiLinux that's cool! I managed to make the arm flavour work, but it will be a lot easier your way. Thanks for sharing this 👍🏻

cameronbosch :endeavourOS:

@fedora @AsahiLinux Will the primary DE switch to GNOME or will there at least be a KDE Plasma spin?

You love to see it.

The Framework Laptop 16 will have in-house support and installation guides for Fedora! With its AMD CPU and GPU you will be teed up for success on Linux.

If you're running into problems with installing or upgrading to Fedora 38:

1. Sorry to hear that, hope it can be resolved soon!
2. Try asking for help in our forum. We have a bunch of users, contributors, and people specifically helping in Ask Fedora.
discussion.fedoraproject.org/c

Also it's better than pinging the Mastodon account just because we're limited in our know-how, lol Just want to manage expectations on how far we can help from here. :)

@fedora I wonder if there could be a bot asking users on mastodon if they want to turn their post into a forum question automatically, and maybe even get pinged in mastodon when an answer arrives on the forums.

@fedora Fedora update breaks NVidia RPM Fusion Akmod's. Workarround is boot without nouveau blacklist and remove all kmods and nvidia packages and install again.

Fedora Project

The #Fedora Project uses @matrix for our instant messaging needs (with IRC bridges also).

While the default experience is with #Element, there are several other neat Matrix clients you can use.

#Fractal, @neochat, and #Nheko are some great options to check out!

Then you can check out Fedora's Matrix room as well: matrix.to/#/#fedora:fedoraproj

Element (desktop, mobile and web) Built with Electron, it's the flagship Matrix client, where most of the features are first tested and implemented, with some big ones like video rooms and message threads still being in beta, but soon to come to stable releases as well.
Fractal (desktop only) Now built on Rust and GTK+libadwaita, it's the go-to for integrating with the GNOME desktop environment.
NeoChat (desktop and mobile) Built on Qt+Kirigami, it's the go-to for integrating with the KDE desktop environment.
Nheko (desktop only) Built on Qt, it looks and feels like a more feature-packed version of NeoChat.
Fedora Project

Here's two more @matrix clients for you!

@cinnyapp, for folks who like Discord's look and feel

#gomuks, for folks who go nuts for the terminal

What's your favorite #Matrix client?

Cinny (desktop and web) Built on Electron, it creates a client that looks similar to the proprietary competitors while still having its own style.
gomuks (desktop only) Built with Go, it's a Matrix client for those that never want to leave the terminal. Why use a GUI, right?
