Linux Atomic Desktops, a concept derived from Fedora’s Project Atomic, are designed to provide a more reliable and manageable desktop environment. This initiative extends the principles of atomic updates to Fedora Workstation, aiming to enhance the stability and consistency of the Linux desktop experience .

hi Chris , I hope you don't mind me using your first name, anyway I was looking at Bazzite as a potential move from windows to lynx would you mind emailing me after watching a lot of your videos I have questions and you don't have a current video snapshot etc the name list goes on and on.. so a little personnel help would go far. ty in advance and I understand if you can't
Just as well rpm-ostree is broken for installs on HeliumOS because the developer didn’t take care of a GPG key error for the epel repository. Doesn’t really matter because in an atomic desktop, given its containerised nature, you’re supposed to get all your software from flatpak. Not too much of an inconvenience getting it up and running, the downside is the /usr directory is now read-write and you can no longer customise your desktop. Workaround is to open up the hidden ./local folder in your home directory and put all the stuff there that would normally go in /usr. There you have it and its actually easier because nothing bad can happen to the desktop by trying to install something you shouldn’t and even if you do, you can always revert to the previous build. Upgrading is as simple as running the rpm-ostree upgrade command. The atomic desktop isn’t only for nerds anymore.
Bruh i got hit by WinRE disappear from my system with recent update. How to get it back easy way ?
I watched s bunch of videos and it wasn’t until I read the documentation I realized how similar of an approach it takes to the approach we take for apps at work. Definitely the future for a very significant amount (>50% imo) use cases.
Is it posible to use Bazzite as a second OS in a Dualboot installation without remove the first Grub?
Thanks for doing a video on Bazzite that isn't just "wow it can play games". This does a much better job of selling why Bazzite is cool to Linux aficionados
Hey chris can you work out simple guide to ostree and its usage i am trying to learn and experiment by watching project like ostree-utility and archlinux-ostree but not able to wrap my head around it as it also uses containers so a easy guide is welcome and your content is superb i love it
Google removed my sub !!! 'Gulag' does not like you. Keep up the good work 😉
I became a big fan of how simple you explain things…keep rocking!
Didn't know some distros were having issues with Helldivers 2, I've been running it flawlessly on Garuda Linux.
Anywho, Bazite seems interesting, the ballooning install size is concerning IMO so I might stick with regular Linux and immutable distros
I am long time windows advanced user and moderate linux user. I tried finding and installing thorium. After five minutes of searching where to download and install a windows exe file installer, I gave up. People suffer from ignorance and cannot realize that people dont have the time or interest to learn every interface being different. It would be to hard to put a exe link download for windows users. The ignorance is beyond ignorance. All that effort for the software but just linux, 100 links to 100 things that non are documented and even if they are, who has the time to do it all for every single piece of software being different almost like debian hiding things. This is insanity! Software has become and endless pit of endless options none being the same and always changing giving the average person no chance at knowing what is good bad or right.
I am an engineer and if this is my experience, the average person is completely lost.
Thanks for doing what you are doing!
Hey,
Would you consider doing a video on Serpent OS. It's an atomic distro being built from the ground up with a brand new package manager, moss, which has it's first pre-alpha being released this last week.
Some really interesting stuff already in the pre-alpha iso and a lot more looking to come.
Ships with Gnome but has cosmic in the repo already and should get a separate iso in the coming week or two.
a 7.5 gigabyte install is completely fine, but only if it doesn't keep getting bigger like windows does.
Why is it called a distro and not an os? Linux newbie here. Installed mint yesterday and LOVE IT!!! OMG
Thanks for this Chris. Re Atomic desktops – Getting printing and scanning to work across all flatpak apps. This is an area that still needs a lot of work.
Next: quantum desktops?
I'm hopping that the new System76 cosmic desktop comes out will be a great alternative to Debain.. whit newer eco system that what I hate the most about Debain that is always so behind I get it for a more stable system but now a days even the cutting edge is pretty stable..
every time i watch your videos i get the feeling you are the king of sciolism which is kinda dangerous imo
Can you make a video testing antitrack apps like Norton or others, please? There seems to be no reviews on Youtube about these apps
Quick question. So you say Linux Mint is a beginners OS. Okay. So then, whats the next step, the next OS to jump to ?
A curious question: Are there people over eighty years of age who are very elderly people who own modern smart phones??

Not sure why HD2 doesn't work for Chris. It plays on my garuda KDE minimal install. I've never had an issue with HD2 the few months I've had it using both stock proton experimental and proton-ge. I do use wayland over x11 and the zen kernel.
the driver for my wifi dongle needs to be built and installed with dkms and it has never worked on any immutable distro
it breaks dkms
Can we play valorant on it
I have never heard of these before oddly enough. Super cool! I am going to test Fedora SilverBlue in a VM for a bit.
I don't like Fedora as a base either. I've been down on Fedora ever since they went to their 6 month upgrades; many, many moons ago. Centos was great for years until IBM got into the mix. Is there an atomic desktop available w/o Fedora in a ProxMox environment? BTW Fedora 40 w/ KDE has been problems for me under ProxMox. My guess is Wayland, but who knows. I don't have the time to do extensive troubleshooting.
This app image launcher is better than app image launcher?
OpenSuse kalpa is a better base for atomic desktops
I have also been playing around with uCore images. Butane and Ignition are very interesting and pretty easy to use.
