[$] Friction in Fedora over AI developer desktop initiative

A push by Red Hat employees to create a Fedora "AI Developer Desktop" with support for out-of-tree kernel drivers and AI toolkits has been met with objections from some long-time m [...]

@rayk To be clear, there is no hard feelings about #Bazzite itself, but I'm of the mindset that it's my machine and I get to decide how it should work, so if Bazzite isn't compatible with that, then it's not what I'm gonna run. The #Linux world isn't a zero sum game and not everything is for everyone and that's OK. Diversity is a feature, not a bug.

What bugs me more is I wanted to understand and help troubleshoot what appeared to be a bug and didn't get that opportunity from Bazzite support.

Absolute gold on the Phoronix forums.

Universal Blue/Bazzite/Silverblue/other immutable Linux friends: (why) should I be using Homebrew?

I contribute to a handful of web projects that use npm, ruby, and probably other package managers. I’ve not really had a problem lately installing things the way those projects say to for Linux, but I keep hearing about people using Homebrew on Linux. When needed, I can also spin up a toolbx container and work in there. Am I missing something?

No more excuses, it's time to switch to Linux

Well, it's the end of an era: my 3 Lenovo M720q are now a full Talos Linux cluster, Proxmox is gone, and the Framework Desktop has been repurposed as a dedicated game station running Bazzite.

Most likely I will migrate from my old Razer laptop to the Framework Desktop, and make it my only workstation, but not today.

Some people don't like to use Homebrew on Linux. Don't ask me why. But let me give you a good reason to use it.

I migrated from a laptop to a desktop. On both I have Bazzite DX running. Since I was migrating to a larger NVMe as well, I re-installed the base OS, but then just "rsync" the "/home" BTRFS volume from one side to another.

Since I don't rpm anything, the only thing missing were a few Flatpak apps that I had to install manually (because they were installed system-wide). Everything else was there. All the apps I installed with "brew" were just working. No drama.

Thanks for making my life easier.

Welp, that's a first - Bazzite seems to have updated and done something weird to the terminal. Got a bog standard bash shell with no MOTD. Looks like .bashrc got wiped.

My #bazzite being weird tonight. No Firefox. rpm-ostree says it's there and rpm disagrees and rpm is right and I have no obvious way to get it back in the overlay.

One of the main reasons I don’t tend to pick up my #ROGAlly running #Bazzite to play games as often as I’d like is because whenever I run a game, it seems to take forever whilst “Processing Vulkan shaders”. Just defeats the point of picking it up to play a game quickly.

Does this happen to anyone on #SteamDeck? Wondering if it’s a Bazzite specific thing or just Linux in general.

Bazzite Linux gets some major upgrades for the April 2026 Update https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2026/04/bazzite-linux-gets-some-major-upgrades-for-the-april-2026-update/

#bazzite update!

I’d been using Fedora Silverblue for forever, but have been dabbling with Bazzite recently. I don’t really game on my PC, but there were some niceties from Universal Blue or Bazzite that I wanted.

Buuut I’m getting kind of annoyed with some of the UX changes that Bazzite makes from stock GNOME. The shell extensions I can disable, but I keep finding things: fonts and window switching (alt+tab) behavior are the most recent.

#GNOME #Linux #Bazzite #UniversalBlue

I think my favorite #bazzite feature is how it renders most desktop linux "help" content on the internet useless.

Even better when the gatekeeping #linux users complain that their anti-patterns no longer work.

Now we just have to deprogram new users who think that it's totally normal for applications to break your OS, lol. Baby steps.

Ok.. I still need to fill a few gaps, but my sleeper build is working great and honestly has great airflow and temps seem good.

I'm running #bazzite #linux on it and it's running things like Forza horizon on ultra with no thermal issues.

I'm curious, what are some ways to benchmark or stress the system to see the thermal limits of the GPU and CPU? How does one test this besides throwing games at it?

Is there a standard bench-marking tool?

#UniversalBlue

Looks like someone made a #bazzite developer mode. Awesome work, people have been asking for this but no one was stepping up.

Now someone just made a thing people can try for themselves, excellent.
