Its rare to see a fedora based distro

[@zish3655]

Your videos are so chill I love them, I can just sit back - get some coffee or food and watch them, thanks so much Tyler and will we get a house-tour soon ;)

[@TylersTechNow]

Eventually! Still so much to do before it’s properly “home”. Getting there though (:

[@zish3655]

@@TylersTechNow So it'll be as soon as Slackware has a new release, I see.

[@gamerking64]

I Always love your "Okayy" at the beginning!!!

[@CupoChinoMusic]

btw the weird murrina theme was the side effect of requiring the GTK2 murrine engine for installing the Fluent theme. So the reason it looked like adwaita is because it *is* adwaita, its the fallback theme.

Tyler, Thank you for a very very good presentation. I am a long time Fedora user, and your presentation today was showing me what can be built from Fedora xx. I got a good feeling that this distribution will win many converts. When you were away, I an old grandpa, was wondering if you were ill. I am glad and relieved to see you A OK. May I wish you the very best of the season. Have a great Christmas, a happy New Year, and with everything that goes with it. Most of all, good health, no corona virus, and prosperity for the coming and future years. Extend those wishes to your immediate family. Leslie from Montreal, Canada

[@lsatenstein]

One disappointment, No printer support. I make use of a brother printer. I will install cups and see if printer works.

[@parrot_orthodoxy3225]

The only thing that I like about this is the fact it has RPM fusion, thank god!

[@jesse7631]

Thank you Tyler! Man, this is going to be my new daily driver. I love Fedora, and I love Budgie - it's the best of both worlds.

[@emjaycee]

A Fedora base with a Budgie DE... really nice addition. Will definitely have to check this one out at some stage :) Thanks, Tyler... you do awesome distro reviews :)

[@AbdelaliAbdallah]

Happy to see new Distro based on Fedora am using the original Fedora workstation and am not keen to try it for now but maybe in the future when i get a new machine i'll try it out as am so stick with dnf based distros

[@vihagchaturvedi6172]

Well i sure didnt expect this to be picked up so quick Thx a lot Tyler :D

[@MyurrDurr]

They use the Fluent GTK theme

[@brahmanggi]

so much hope for this fedora based distro, awesome!!

[@DeirdreYoung1]

Excellent overview of a beautiful distro, thank you very much.

[@nemowei5553]

Great..Will try it today. Thanks for the review!

[@pabloarangocorrea877]

It seems like a quite good distro!

[@morenteria2988]

The wallpaper is a beauty

[@captive8670]

Very cool distro, I love Fedora personaly so I will test it too. But do you do you plan to test the Cutefish version ?

[@atolmakin]

beautiful distro!

[@BtZealot]

Tyler, ypu might want to revisit this distro's website. They now have Gnome and Pantheon desktops.

[@jasonsantasiero8431]

The creator said that he wanted to make Fedora Budgie an official spin at some point. Don't know if he is still trying to make it an official spin. Still good to know that a Fedora Budgie spin might be a thing in the future.

[@Librael-prod]

thank you for nice review as always, i'm actually gonna try and daily drive Ultramarine

[@dopegod3d178]

hello. good video. i just bought an ender 3 pro 3d printer. and i want to be able to use pronterface, cura, and prusa slicer, but non of my programs see my printer. LSUSB sees it. but i dont know what to do after that. could you have the exact command?

[@TVPInterpolation]

that looks like a beautiful distro from the first look... i think ill test that one out!

[@TVPInterpolation]

Little Status: i do really like ultramarine linux. i only personally had issues with the volume mixer of budgie - and that i needed to install gnome tweaks to fix mouse acceleration to "flat". i was able to workaround the issue with the volume mixer, but i really wanted to get it to work with the raven menu (i have a very weird audio setup, lets just say this) So that means i sadly will not daily drive ultramarinelinux, and im open for recommendations of the community. slowly thinking rolling my own Arch would make the most sense after so much distrohopping.

[@tell1998]

This distro reminds me of another distro that's no long supported and that was Korora

[@CupoChinoMusic]

Well we wanted it to be like Korora actually

[@tell1998]

@@CupoChinoMusic if you're one of the devs that's great that this distro idea was to be a pick up to Korora. Korora I heard gotten a lot of people into Fedora

[@riseabove3082]

It looks very nice, just not sure what differentiating value it brings, but it is very nice looking. The tiling is atrocious though in comparison to how easy it is to use in Windows 11; this requires way more effort with mouse movements and clicking to set each window to tile. I wonder if they are using Fedora's Selinux and their command based firewall - two things I hate in Fedora. I'm also curious is it EXT4 or ButterFS filesystem and Zram? I will research this on my own but Fedora has much more advanced features than a typical Ubuntu based distro.

[@CupoChinoMusic]

It does. also Ultramarine is essentially a spritual successor to Korora, so its meant to be as simple as possible for new users and powerful when needed.

[@ocruzyval309]

Every time i tried to download the distro, i get an error: page can not be found! what can be the problem?

[@stefhannington2218]

I just stumbled on this distro today as was looking for something to get me away from Arch and debian based systems. Used to rock fedora and have to say I'm very much liking what I see

[@qsam14]

This would be a nice primary OS.

[@mayankjangid1543]

Please do a review of Axyl Linux

[@parkch1123]

look so cool

[@commanderdestructa4654]

Will this dual boot with Windows 11? Currently using Manjaro, but would like to give this a go.

[@human__________]

it should. enable os prober in grub config if it doesn't show up on the boot list by default.

[@theseeker4104]

Can you do a review on StormFish OS Arch on sourceforge.

[@krazykat64]

Be interesting to see where this distro goes in the future seeing as how the Budgie team is moving away from GTK while Fedora is very heavily invested in it. Perhaps a Budgie fork?

[@enkiimuto1041]

I did not know budgie had tiled windows.

[@josephdegarmo]

This distro should have gone with KDE Plasma instead of Budgie for the default desktop.

[@AbdelaliAbdallah]

You can install kde with ease using one command

[@DCM777.]

@@AbdelaliAbdallah He said for the default desktop, we know we can install it!

[@CupoChinoMusic]

no. we hate qt ptsd from porting cutefish

10 to the video. 8.5 to this distrofia (would hace been 10 if not for the lack of support for Wayland)

TYLER I WANT SETUP/SPECS TOUR

[@TylersTechNow]

It will happen some time in the new year (:

[@jwong7279]

Why should we use this instead of fedora

[@encryptedcicada9375]

Please do a video on clear linux. It's been a while we've heard about it from anyone in the mainstream. I know it's not oriented towards the average user but a review would still be nice

[@TylersTechNow]

Haven’t been keeping up with Clear. Could be a good one to cover in the new year

[@MaikAdamietz]

Sounds like Korora re-done.

[@CupoChinoMusic]

hi i uhhh

[@rishabhprakash007]

What is the difference between this and fedora you are basically explaining the DE not the distro.

[@KatyushaLauncher]

The difference is that Ultramarine is more user friendly than Fedora, because Ultramarine enables essential features that are disabled by Fedora, such as RPM Fusion, Multimedia codecs, DNF configurations, and many more.

[@ThatLinuxDude]

Too bad we're gonna be stuck with Adwaita for the most part in this the moment it gets GNOME 42.

[@CupoChinoMusic]

then we're using adwaita, new adwaita looks lit

[@CDMS_pt]

Please don't put stuff that small, you like it small but for us to see is more important, i think. What i look in this videos is scaling, fractional scaling, kernel and ease to change it, nvidia drivers and ease to install them, etc. If you could do that in your videos i appreciate, thank you.

[@TylersTechNow]

The only thing I reduced was the panel right? I think I showed it in its original size of “50” for a large portion of the video. I also do a lot of zooming during the edit to make things easier to see. Appreciate the feedback though, thanks for watching (:

[@bactanite]

btrfs, no thanks. I left Fedora over that.

[@bzizmza]

what problems did you encounter while using btrfs?

[@bactanite]

@@bzizmza GRUB no longer worked. Even after reformatting and changing to another distro it still didn't work with one of my computers. The other one still doesn't have a visible GRUB menu even though Fedora is long gone. With btrfs I wouldn't record streaming audio with Audacity anymore. I upgraded from Fedora 33 to 34 and still had the same problems. Moreover, with 34 I couldn't customize the Gnome desktop. Fedora was a great distro while using versions 28 - 32, but I won't go back until they fix things and make it easy to install with Ext4. I ended going back to Debian, and it is working out for me.

[@felaflame]

Damn, another dark and flat disaster

[@TheAmirhossssein]

OW GREAT YET Another distro... fq linux

They shouldn't be using Windows 11's icons
