Just upgraded my Silverblue installation. It was boring. It just downloaded while I kept working, one reboot, and it just works. Nothing to fix or tweak. What now?
- What now?
  
  Good news! The Factorio DLC just released so you can make your factory grow in the time previously needed to fix things.
- Yeah seriously, without stuff breaking every update, why even use Linux?
  
  The ease of updating and installing new software is starting to get me down. I've started hiring a neighbor to come over and slap me across the face for minor updates, and vigorously kick me in the balls when I do a full version upgrade.
I like that they used Microsoft Office WordArt for the image.
I booted into Bazzite this evening and noticed my lock screen had changed, I assumed there had been a major update of some kind. I'm impressed both with how quickly I got this and with how entirely seamless this whole experience has been so far.
This'll be my first Silverblue major version update. What am I in for?
- Not much
  
  The upgrade turned out to be extremely uneventful!
- I just did it. You're in for a reboot. That's about it, unless you layered a bunch of stuff.
  
  I maaaay have layered some stuff that I couldn't find flatpaks for. 🥺
  
  It won't matter of you layered a bunch of stuff
Early release is a nice surprise, especially after F40 (or was it 39?) got delayed so many times. Upgrade went smooth for me, upstream accent colors are nice to finally have. Kind of a bummer it doesn't apply to Nautilus icons though.
- You can change your icon theme
  
  With luck it will land in 42
Very nice.
Nice! I was waiting for this release to do a fresh install over my previous Fedora installation that I had installed using Ventoy.
