They just hit their first alpha release, but it has been under development for years already. They focus on rust-based tooling, so even their coreutils are the rust versions instead of GNU. I read the alpha announcement yesterday, and might give it a spin later next year.
So far I've been very happy with Kinoite. I upgrade the base system once a week, but everything is installed in my Arch based container, so updates are fast and do not require a reboot.
On my workstation I use the Aurora Linux, a spin of Kinoite with extra tools such as tailscale added to the base image. On that machine I haven't needed to use rpm-ostree at all.

- swaits 2y agoThanks for pointing met to Serpent! I gave Aurora a quick spin before going back to Endeavour. Didn’t work well for me.
- LeFantome 2y agoSo, from a userland perspective, you are actually running Arch.
- pimeys 2y agoArch, Nix, Debian, Fedora and Windows. Just switch between them from the terminal new tab menu. If one container breaks, just dump the list of installed packages and start over. The base system is rock solid.
- LeFantome 2y agoVery cool that they ship with COSMIC as a DE option. Love using Clang as the compiler as well.
