The entire purpose is to conveniently access your files, so if that's a problem use containers normally or pass a -h during distrobox create if you want to isolate home directories.

This was a server issue, you can always report an issue in github and we'll take a look, it took 10m to fix. But crucially it found an edge case that we hadn't accounted for and haven't run into so far, so we'll work on making sure this won't happen again: https://github.com/ublue-os/main/issues/643

bluefin/aurora co-maintainer here, the 1password ssh agent is a miniboss we haven't conquered yet, just a heads up.

She only suggested a small “news channel” built into the OS.

Yeah we're working on that here: https://github.com/ublue-os/bluefin/issues/1485

The failure with secure boot afterwards is news to me, we'll investigate, thanks!

Did you experience the Silverblue issue on a ublue image? We mitigated that last month so you should only have one problem or the other, not both.

there are a lot of tools included that are new to me, despite being a cloud-oriented developer.

Interesting! What tools do you commonly use?

We probably won't (we're not looking to grow that much anymore), but I think someone should definitely take either portainer or the proxmox stack and just slap it on top a CoreOS image with a user friendly installer and make a killer SMB server.

Here's the repo: https://github.com/ublue-os/bluefin and the intro doc outlines some of the features. We include all the codecs from rpmfusion and use negativo17 for the nvidia drivers.

Yeah checkout ucore, which is derived from CoreOS instead of Silverblue: https://github.com/ublue-os/ucore

What kind of printer? What's the name of the package that got it working? We can add printer drivers pretty easily.

Hi! Universal Blue co-maintainer here, here's the TLDR. You've got the basic descriptions right, "Universal Blue" is mostly the parent organization that holds everything in github.

We take Fedora's Atomic OCI images and customize them for different use cases (Aurora, Bazzite, and Bluefin) and then publish base images so people can make their own versions of whatever they want. So if you wanted to take Silverblue, Kinoite, and make your own custom image you can mostly just grab whatever you want and shove it into an OS image. Bluefin started off as a "fix me" script for Silverblue that added all the stuff I wanted and then once I was shown what Fedora wanted to do with it the natural progression was to just make it a custom image. We just released 3.0 a few minutes ago actually!

Basically in Fedora 41 the tech will become more widely available with official OCI base images and better tooling. We just decided to start way earlier in the process so we could get all the automation out of the way, build a community, get familiar with it, etc. Happy to answer any other questions you may have!
