The Fedora Project has recycled primary sponsor Red Hat’s old Atomic brand (which the company sunset after acquiring CoreOS), and will use it to group its growing collection of immutable desktop distributions: Silverblue (with GNOME), Kinoite (with KDE Plasma), Sericea (with Sway), and Onyx (with Budgie).
Fedora aims to be the best distro for software developers, and Red Hat’s announcement of the beta highlighted some of the tools for machine learning and large language model development that it will include, including the Python-based PyTorch and version 6 of AMD’s ROCm framework complete with support for AMD’s latest MI300 accelerators.
Version 5 of the DNF package manager, which was held back from Fedora 38 early last year, still didn’t make it in two releases later, but it’s being evaluated in some subsidiary roles.
This is an OS for modern hardware, and while it should perform well, it will want plenty of fast storage and a recent model of GPU, supported by the latest drivers, to do it.
This aging vulture has to perform a web search to check which name denotes which desktop in each Fedora immutable edition, every single time.
If anyone has a hypothesis to explain why distro vendors are so fond of giving their immutable distributions whimsical names, please send in your ideas on a postcard comment below.
