    Fedora Silverblue

    • I like Gnome
    • I like that Fedora adopts new technology quickly
    • I like how it makes updates more reliable
    • I like flatpak

      What do people use for command line utilities? The selection on flatpak is a bit sparse

      Same here, I use Silverblue as host OS on all of my workstations now, and Arch for nearly all of my containers.

      Flatpak for just about everything in the userspace.

        I was using Debian and Docker for my servers, but I’m switching to uCore and Podman. It was a decent learning curve, but I think I’m going to like it better.

          I hated postman so much I switched back to Docker. Why compose was better at handling dependent containers then quadlets. Yes I could use postman compose but heard it’s no longer supported and if I’m using it might as well use a supported docker compose.

            I never used Docker compose. If I had two containers that needed to communicate, I’d just setup networking for them.

            SSDs have become incredibly cheap, and flatpak doesn’t even use that much storage space.

              I see being facetious is lost. Yes I know they don’t use a lot of space, however, they do package all their own dependencies. That means you do end up with duplicates.

                Appimages do. Flatpaks have runtimes. There may be multiple runtimes but space is cheap. You can even spare the amount of space on a phone.

                I once thought I should compress my images because they had 10mb each. I was wrong. I just had to put them on my server with immich and I don’t care about the space anymore. One 4k video is so big, all space related problems with apps or images are a real waste of time.
