#VanillaOS #Debian #Linux #GNOME #UnoLinux
A otto mesi dal rilascio di Vanilla OS 22.10 Kinetic, il team di sviluppo di Vanilla OS ha annunciato il rilascio della prima versione Alpha di Vanilla OS 2 nome in codice Orchid.

What do y'all think about #VanillaOS and especially #apx?

looks like the @vanillaos icon has become Fuzzy. As we all eagerly await the release (or release date announcement) of 2.0 Orchid, which is now pretty soon!

I think the biggest new thing 2.0 brings is OCI for the base system, which means I should be able to swap from the regular desktop image to, say, a KDE desktop image, without having to reinstall!

In the September issue, we explore the best small Linux distros. The print edition includes a DVD with 10 Small Distro ISOs and 4 Small Distro Virtual Appliances.

@drbjork Also you can use #silverblue and install stuff on an Ubuntu container

Maybe #Bluefin (https://universal-blue.org/images/bluefin/) or #VanillaOS (vanillaos.org) would be the distribution of choice

What do you think about immutable Linux desktops as a daily driver?

Do you like systems like #silverblue or #VanillaOS ?

Considering checking out an #immutable #Linux distro that uses #distrobox, like #openSUSE #MicroOS or #VanillaOS, because I like the extra security and separation and atomic updates and so on they offer, it's a lot like the stuff I like about #GrapheneOS, but I'm not sure if they're actually any more secure, since new root OS components can still be installed, it just requires a reboot. Does anyone know?

I'm just coping with the extreme anxiety of fedora giving me problems by trying out #VanillaOS. It seems to be designed to hold up against people like me. Any experience?

Like, i have to try hard to break it, right?

Did you know? #VanillaOS is not just another #Linux distribution!

#OpenSource #FOSS

@thelinuxcast I think I should’ve told you this earlier… #VanillaOS has a “PackageManager” that can be installed on other distros, which basically a frontend for #DistroBox.

Installed #opensuse #tumbleweed on my old x230 because I'm sadly struggling too much with getting a dev environment working easily using either #docker or #nixshell running on #VanillaOS. Vanilla works great for my media laptop that must-not-break-no-matter-what, though.

I hadn't seen it previously but the opensuse installer has an encrypted partitions option, and it worked flawlessly! Guess I'll spend tomorrow reinstalling my other opensuse laptop as well.

@thelinuxEXP @vanillaos I swear, sometimes your videos seemed to be timed EXACTLY to what I’ve been looking into, as I tried installing #VanillaOS for the first time just YESTERDAY.

I was stymied by a bad Wi-Fi card in my test laptop, but I’ll be trying again today.

J'aurais aimé que les développeurs de #VanillaOS auraient su que les pilotes d'Nvidia s'installent PENDANT l'installation, et pantoute après. Je suis si enragé que je vais danser sous le sol :boude: :boude: :boude: :boude:

#nvidiadrivers

Just installed #VanillaOS, seems good so far

how to run binaries as root, #VanillaOS ?

@adham Since you’re talking about distrobox, I would take a look at Apx, #VanillaOS’s “package manager”, which is basically a frontend for distrobox. It can be installed on other distros. https://youtu.be/E1z_Ex7XyLw

Nice one :-)
#VanillaOS

I totally forgot that I had installed #vanillaos to check out and compare to my custom #archlinux install. Arch has just been good to me, minus #bluetooth issues, but I think that's just #linux in general.

Interesting to hear Bottlerocket's name evoked in this video.

#VanillaOS and Bottlerocket definitely don't compete (apples and oranges) but there are a lot of common threads.

So my Thetis FIDO/U2F key I got for Christmas actually does work with my #VanillaOS #Linux computer! I just had to run the command in the FAQ, make sure my user is in plugdev, and reboot:
