Fedora Onyx: The Newest Immutable Variant of Fedora Linux
Get ready for a game-changing addition to the Fedora family. The proposal for Fedora Linux to introduce a new immutable variant has been approved by the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee (FESCo) and is set to become a reality in the upcoming Fedora 39 cycle. This groundbreaking development is sure to shake up the world of Linux operating systems.
What is Fedora Onyx?
Fedora Onyx is an upcoming immutable variant of Fedora Linux that will feature the popular Budgie Desktop Environment. This is not to be confused with the existing Fedora Budgie spin, as this variant will offer an entirely new level of immutability, taking inspiration from other successful Fedora variants like Silverblue and Kinoite.
Why Choose Fedora Onyx?
According to the now-approved change proposal, Fedora Onyx will offer unparalleled immutability and atomic capabilities, thanks to its use of foundational technologies like flatpak, rpm-ostree, podman, and toolbox. This new variant is perfect for those who value the power and versatility of the Fedora computing platform and Budgie Desktop environment, but also require the added bonus of rock-solid immutability.
FESCo Gives the Green Light
The proposal for Fedora Onyx was met with unanimous approval from members of the Fedora Engineering and Steering Committee, solidifying its official status as a new immutable variant of Fedora Linux. This exciting development is sure to attract a whole new audience to the Fedora community.
