@asael My personal choice for linux distro is @archlinux however I think if you choose #fedora for your daily work or #gnomeos for testing which I haven't used yet, they will also have up to date packages when it comes to accessibility. What I like about arch linux is its rolling release nature, getting apps very soon after they are released. -
Abderrahim is showing us how to install #GNOMEOS on a #Fairphone 5!
Thanks to Fairphone for donating some phones and @codethink for some engineering time to work on this
Instructions to try yourself (at your own risk :)) at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-build-meta/-/blob/master/docs/phones.md #GUADEC2026 #linuxmobile #mobilelinux

My colleague Abderrahim is giving an update on the State of #GNOMEOS at #GUADEC2026 right now.
An interesting insight is that this #freedesktop-sdk based OS is implementing bleeding-edge upstream features first ( not just @gnome stuff ) and testing them here. #systemd, #bootc, #oo7 ... Etc are some examples. Also you can install it in some phones! Give it a try!

A bit later than expected but finally here! Ready for a great #GUADEC in A Coruña!! Looking forward to talk about #freedesktop-sdk, #buildstream, #GNOMEOS, GNOME on mobile and everything in between !! Thanks @codethink for sponsoring the trip (and the conference) :) #GUADEC2026

So, I was intrigued by some #Linux schedule work that happened during kernel summit. Specifically, @rostedt https://github.com/rostedt/libtraceeval (yes, it's not stable yet) utility. I created https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-build-meta/-/work_items/1288 to see if we could evaluate cpu scheduler patterns on desktop load - maybe help create a conversation. If anybody is interested in this work, please feel free to comment on the issue.
#gnome #kernel #linuxkernel #gnomeosI would love to see this lead to good perf on desktop loads.

It's been a lot of fun using Gnome OS as my main and only OS for the last 9 months!
But I'm starting to miss being able to use my dedicated GPU – especially now that I've started working a bit with video. And unfortunately Gnome OS does not support the proprietary driver needed to use my Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050.
So I'm on the lookout for my next OS. Recommendations appreciated, if it runs Gnome and you know for sure it supports the GTX 1050!

Starting to play with #GNOMEOS on a small display … works very well, up-to-date and minimal (1366x768, Samsung Serie 5 Ultra) 🤓

Hey! The #freedesktop-sdk team have spent some time improving their docs; team is looking for feedback, specially from downstreams that use it as a junction (like #gnomeos ) please check: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/freedesktop-sdk/2026-May/000081.html

Another unexpected joy running an immutable operating system: Emacs 30 does not ship complete treesitter implementations for the languages it proports to support out of the box.
Instead, you get an opaque error about missing so's, have to find the command that goes and downloads the language spec implementation (!) from some random web site, usually githib (!!) and compile it (!!!) and install into $HOME (!!!!).
I hope that whoever decided any of the above was a good idea was having a great time being super high on whatever substance they were on when Decisions Were Made. But it obviously can easily break horribly on any system other than one being identical to the OG hacker's personal setup. If they were running a SMTP service, it'd be an open relay.
Clearly, this is a challenge for people with slightly less loose security postures (that is to say, even just having a security posture), or for people who run $HOME in heterogeneous environments, and also probably in a bunch of ways I can't even imagine.
Good times!

So here's some reflections a few weeks in after having replacing Ubuntu with GNOME OS as the sole OS on my daily driver laptop.
1. OMG still feels great finally having a complete, up to date set of GNOME packages and a stock GNOME desktop, after decades of Canonical picking and choosing what and when to package - Calendar and Disks in particular. Even poor old Software seems to work well enough now.
GNOME OS remains by far the best desktop experience compared to Windows and MacOS, and having the whole thing together as intended is *chefkiss*.
2. While I miss being able to do things like `dpkg [-L/-S]` to work out what packages own what files (mostly while trying to debug problems with the OS), in general the immutable system works amazingly well such that I don't even think about software updates anymore. It Just Works™.

Believing the shop managers blaming delivery truck drivers, the supermarket's customers order chips delivered by a "Large Lorry Model" :psyduck:Meanwhile, a group of anarcho-syndicalist farmers are building entire farmers' markets to replace the established supermarkets' management by Very Small Shell Scripts™ just to prove a point, filling immutable shelves with flat-packed goods and a JIT fast-moving inventory.

I am totally melting this strix halo. I'm using this tool to run a memory system locally. I can even send the local model to do stuff as a subagent. And then someday, completely local.
That makes sense to me, this is just the AI version of "hybrid cloud". The other workload maxing the CPU cores is building #gnomeos and #bluefin dakota, which I do all locally via this setup - test NUC reboots.

Hey @kyle greg k-h was explaining his setup to me and now I am kind of motivated to see how people home lab this stuff out. I am going for the "locally driven testlab to make Project Bluiefin" because that would make a good talk lol.
