From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

"We are happy to announce the general availability of Fedora Asahi Remix 45. This release brings Fedora Linux 45 to Apple Silicon Macs. What’s included

Fedora Asahi Remix is developed in close collaboration with the Fedora Asahi SIG and the Asahi Linux project. This release incorporates all of the exciting improvements brought by Fedora Linux 45. Like previous releases, Fedora Asahi Remix 45 supports Apple M1 and M2 systems. In addition, this release includes out of the box initial support for Apple M3, M3 Pro and M3 Max. Asahi Linux upstream now officially supports these new systems. The GPU drivers enabling performant 3D acceleration on the M3 systems are not included at this point. They will be available via a Mesa update in the future.

Fedora Asahi Remix offers KDE Plasma 6.8 as our flagship desktop experience. All of the new and exciting features brought by Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop 45 are included.

A GNOME variant is also available, featuring GNOME 51, with both desktop variants matching what Fedora Linux offers. Fedora Asahi Remix also provides a Fedora Server variant for server workloads and other types of headless deployments. Finally, we offer a Minimal image for users that wish to build their own experience from the ground up. Installation

You can install Fedora Asahi Remix today by following our installation guide. Follow the usual Fedora Linux upgrade process for existing systems running Fedora Asahi Remix 43 or 44. Upgrades via GNOME’s Software application are unfortunately unavailable. Either KDE’s Plasma Discover or DNF’s System Upgrade command must be used."

Been using it on an M2 Pro for more than a year now and it works great, love it! Always looking forward to new updates, contrary to macos updates where i was dreading them haha

Same here! I actually don't touch the mac part, which I need occasionally for one piece of software (QLab). I call it the Dark Side, and it always complain about available updates indeed.

On the Bright Side I've got it all, even some "evil" ones like Teamviewer which I need to manage remote windows machines at work. It runs smooth, boots quick, and Gnome gestures on the excellent trackpad are a delight. Excellent screen, good batteries (not as long lasting alas but still a Day's Work' good).
