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.

There already is an experimental image based on Silverblue with the alpha stage Cosmic Epoch Desktop.

Mainly finetuning and SELinux profiles are needed!

This is pretty much my setup anyway. I run Pop Shell on top of Fedora and add dash to dock.

I'm just absolutely hooked on the autotiling built into pop shell.

If its an official spin all the better.

System76 developed its own Desktop, not a modified GNOME anymore. It looks similar, but it is a completely different and novel piece of software.

I can't wait. As long as they keep the autotiling feature working as well as it does now I'm down.
