Mumble’s UX/UI is so arcane, my friends don’t want to use it.


Yeah, it’s part of the Universal Blue family of distros which Bazzite is part of. Technically it’s not immutable (they call it atomic), but yeah. For gui apps I just use flatpaks & appimages, for cli apps I do: brew install whatever. 99% of the time this does the trick, for that 1% which is some obscure random app I really want to try, I just use Kontainer which is a GUI for distrobox, basically it let’s me install any linux app for any distro. And for those super rare cases when I need to use a Windows app, I use Winboat which is freaking great.
Aurora now has a live iso, you could try it without installing it and see if everything works out for you.
In other words, it’s Fedora Kinoite with expanded hardware support, a few quality of life improvements and the trustworthyness of an immutable distro. I’ve been rocking it for more than a year, and it’s the same pure bliss of Bazzite (which I run on all my home PCs).
I use Aurora on my work laptop, I’ve installed it in an external M2 caddy drive, so my company has the Windows drive with the license intact, and I’ve set the BIOS to boot to the M2… so my files are all on the external drive which also works as a thumbdrive on my desktop PC at home. When my IT guy said I had to change laptops, I just plugged my M2 drive to the new one and that’s it.
Freaking great. Best experience I’ve ever had with work laptops. Plus, it’s faster than Windows. I love it so much.


This is freaking great


I don’t know, I just installed Aurora Linux and everything works by default.
I bet your issue is hardware related, maybe you could change something in the bios to make it work.


Holy shit, I have to try this. Thank you so much!


Isn’t there anything else on alternative to that is worth trying?
Risc-V is very exciting. The future of open computing.


The only drawback is that it doesn’t have an app catalogue. For novice users that would be great. Otherwise, GearLever is superior in every aspect.


Is this still an issue with the latest KDE Plasma & Gnome ?
Yeah, but the UI is not good enough for kids.


What’s the issue with HiDPI ? I’m out of the loop.
Jellyfin needs a client with a YT Kids UI with auto-downloads. I haven’t found one yet. As for kidney, it looks so simple to replicate that I really can’t believe they are expecting to make money from it.


Hi, this looks amazingly powerful. I was thinking about trying it, however I am not very fond of the font and color scheme, does it support themes ? If it doesn’t, would it be easy to change the CSS ?


Holy shit, this is great! I’ve always wanted something like this!
Thank you so much, I’ll give it a try!


Has anyone tried ActivePieces? How does it compare?


If this is real, holy shit.


I wish they would release that theme that leaked a while ago.
