#YearOfTheLinuxDesktop #AuroraOS

At our regular Digital Lounges we often help people switch to linux by helping them get a decent linux installed.

We've started trialing on a different linuxOS being Aurora by Universal Blue (the team behind the Basite Gaming OS).

Anyone have experience using Aurora, epsecially in comparison to Fedora Atomic Kinote, we're looking for a new atomic style option, would love to hear people's experiences.

"To rethink the Linux Desktop experience from the ground up, we built Aurora on new technology and principles." .. more info here on the OS.

Aurora - The Linux-based ultimate workstation

The ultimate productivity workstation, stable and streamlined for you.

Has anyone moved from a rolling release (I'm on #Manjaro now, after many years in #Mint and #Ubuntu) to an atomic release with containerised applications? I'm looking at #AuroraDX or #Fedora #Kinote).

I left Ubuntu because of Chromium Snap. Left Mint to try and get rid of a sea of PPAs and still have modern apps. Now the typical AUR, etc hassles lead me to wonder if maybe just using #Flatpak is good enough.

What do y'all think? I have Framework 13 AMD, Dell Sputniks, and random Lenovos.

#Fedora #Kinote's #KDE Plasma is upgraded to 6.1, more cutting edge than #openSUSE #Tumbleweed, wow.
Current status: Using #Fedora #Kinote to install #AlmaLinux 8 on a libvirt host running #CentOS 7 to deploy a container based app served by #podman via virt-manager in order to manually test one of our backup/recovery methods.
