Whelp, I've migrated fully to #zirconium now by the wonderful team of @tulilirockz Valerie and Hex.

#niri #linux

Another #Zirconium update for the desktop compy.
I'm so fully into bootc based setups now I can't imagine going back to anything else.
@mayintoronto I'd answer this but first I want to discuss how awesome #Zirconium is with my friend @tulilirockz
A manual update of the #Zirconium flavour of my Bluefin desktop. I know. Utter gibberish.This has been running quite snappily, for me at least. I do have my original Bluefin desktop pinned so I can always revert back to that if needed. The joys of the whole #bootc thing.

Apparently a little toy image I made with my friends @valerie_tar_gz and @bri reached 100 users at some point close to new years! I've been daily driving Zirconium for a bit now and I'm having a lot of fun, works pretty well on my dual core laptop as well. Maybe check it out if you are interested :3c

Switched from #ProjectBluefin to #zirconium because #kicad has less issues running on #niriwm than #Gnome

@DankLinux @YaLTeR Once again couldn't help myself and stuck #zirconium on my laptop. It has some rough edges (how do you keep it up to date? no script for enrolling your Luks key, etc) but the default experience is excellent. Looking forward to watching it mature.
