How to fully automate Fedora Silverblue setup/configuration?
  • Check ublue approach like for example in this repo: https://github.com/ublue-os/beyond

    In other words, leverage native OCI containers.

  • Favorite Terminal Emulator
  • Gnome Console since it is consistent with the rest of Gnome and works well enough.

  • Anybody have a solution for dotfiles outside /home
  • Those configuration files are for managing system's package manager, so I don't think $HOME would be a better place.

  • Anybody have a solution for dotfiles outside /home
  • From lack of a better solution, I would symlink the folder or use stow --target /etc flag if you use stow for managing dotfiles.

  • What is your go-to Linux distro and why?
  • Gentoo and Alpine are both really great distributions.

  • Does anyone actually like the default GNOME workflow?
  • And with lots of polish and convenient features.

  • Thank you for indulging me! I tried Alpine for a moment with Sway but it was really bare and I had some issues with setting up seatd and/or elogind to ensure some usual niceties like auto-mounting of usb drives etc. I was curious how is daily-driving it experienced by others.

  • [Sway] Purple tiles
  • How do you handle lack of systemd? Do you use elogind or seatd? Do you package some things yourself considering Alpine isn't popular as a desktop distribution?

  • Anyone else starting to favor Flatpak over native packages?
  • That doesn't mean it is the only option.

  • Anyone else starting to favor Flatpak over native packages?
  • But there are other options with Silverblue.

  • Poll about Fedora OPT-OUT telemetry metrics proposal
    discussion.fedoraproject.org UNOFFICIAL poll about OPT-OUT metrics proposal

    Since the discussion about the change proposal triggered so many replies (some of those implying malevolence in moving the discussion from ML to Discourse and split in separate threads), let’s get down to the core question and make use of the advanced feature of Discourse to have users clearly state...

    What do you like about your Linux Distro?
  • Ubuntu usually provides you with system working out of the box. Same goes for Fedora and its spins. Arch is DIY distribution, which means that the "missing" stuff you have to install/configure yourself. archinstall gives you just a basic start.

    If you don't know your way around bare window managers, then yeah, it would be a good idea to try with things preconfigured: EndeavourOS should give you that, Fedora Sway spin also.

    Or you could bite the bullet and try to provide the missing things yourself and learn in the process. What are you missing?
