I have been using Fedora Sericea since it came out (it's basically Fedora Silverblue, but uses Sway-wm instead of Gnome-wm). The system is actually pretty usable, and you don't really need to reboot after each rpm-ostree install command (`rpm-ostree live-apply` takes care of it via systemd-based overlay).
- _d3Xt3r_ 3y agoBut you still need to reboot for the new kernel to go live right? Or is the kernel switched via kexec or something?
- softirq 3y agoYes, there's nothing special about the kernel upgrade. You either reboot or kexec.
- senectus1 3y agoin the last two weeks I've been using Fedora Workstation, I haven't use Linux in 20 years and i have to say this is an incredibly improved experience. I haven't yet needed to boot back into windows! If it stays like that for the next 6 months I'll cut over to Linux permanently and wipe the windows partition.
- modeless 3y agoYou may already know this but you can play most Windows games using Proton via Steam and it works really, really well.
- hollander 3y agoBut what about Office, Adobe , Affinity?
- hexo 3y agoi dont believe anyone needs such mega-bad bloatware
- alexvitkov 3y agoyour belief is not very grounded in reality unfortunately
- anthk 3y agoLutris has installers for those too, and Flatpak makes Lutris' installation a breeze. Those are propietary, but you have Krita, Only Office, Inkscape, LibreOffice, Blender...
- senectus1 3y agoyeah Office365 is a problem. If I really need that I'll either run up a VM for windows or I'll use works citrix session (or the work laptop)
