Ultramarine, The Easier Fedora · The Kernal
thekernal.xyz
It is no doubt that Fedora is steadily becoming an amazing option for desktop Linux, in many cases outperforming Ubuntu and OpenSUSE. And yet, despite its amazing features, great support, and beautiful default experience, there always seems to be some things that aren’t there. Many desktops, multimidea codecs, and non-free applications are not available on Fedora Linux by default without some heavy tinkering. And it is that problem, that Ultramarine Linux attempts to solve. Ultramarine Linux is a Fedora based, open sourced distro that attempts to make the experience more usable by adding the option for more desktops, external repositories, and codecs that aren’t available on the regular Fedora. So, after giving it a spin, I’m going to show you what makes Ultramerine tick, and why you might want to check it out.

    With Fedora 36 isn’t anymore true you can just turn on the switch for third party libraries and than you have RPM Fusion also enabled

    False. Just like F35, all it enables is the “Fedora third-party repos”, which include Google Chrome’s and PyCharm’s repos, as well as Steam and NVIDIA Driver filtered RPM Fusion and filtered Flathub.

    You still need to use the terminal to enable RPMFusion and there’s nothing the Fedora team can legally do currently to make it available to users in an easier way without putting themselves to some level of risk.
