Linux

Couldn't watch, so I got a summary. Maybe it's helpful for someone else:

• Bluefin is introducing a new "Stable" tag for their Fedora distribution, in addition to the existing "GTS" (Grand Touring Support) and "Latest" tags.

• The Stable tag will provide a middle ground between the aggressively updated Latest Fedora and the more conservative GTS version.

• Stable will use the latest Fedora release, but with a slightly older kernel that has been more thoroughly tested and vetted by the Bluefin team.

• This is intended to cater to enthusiasts who want the latest Fedora features, but with a bit more stability and reliability.

• Bluefin will be publishing weekly updates for the Stable images, rather than waiting 2 weeks between updates like the Fedora CoreOS team.

• The Stable images will also use zstd chunked compression to reduce the amount of bandwidth needed for updates.

• Bluefin is unsure whether the Stable configuration (latest Fedora, slightly older kernel) or the GTS configuration (older Fedora, latest kernel) will ultimately feel more stable in practice

• The Stable tag is a response to user feedback requesting access to the latest Fedora releases, rather than having to wait for the GTS version.

• Nvidia driver updates for the Stable images will also be provided on a regular basis.

• Bluefin is interested in exploring this middle ground between aggressively updated and conservatively updated Fedora distributions.
