Introduction
On November 6, 2003, the Fedora Project released Fedora Core 1, marking the inception of a community-driven journey into the world of open-source operating systems. Fast forward twenty years, and Fedora Linux 39 is here, a testament to two decades of innovation, collaboration, and unwavering dedication.
Desktop Delights
Fedora Workstation, the desktop variant of Fedora, now boasts GNOME 45. This update brings not only better performance but also a slew of usability enhancements. Users will find a new workspace switcher and a significantly improved image viewer, enhancing the overall desktop experience. But that’s not all; Fedora offers a diverse array of desktop flavors, including Fedora Onyx, a Budgie-based “Atomic” desktop for those seeking something different.
In the Cloud
For cloud enthusiasts, Fedora Cloud images are now officially available on Microsoft Azure, expanding its presence to complement Google Cloud and AWS. What’s more, cloud images are configured to allow cloud-init to install updates and reboot upon provisioning, ensuring you start with the latest security updates.
Under the Hood
As always, Fedora Linux 39 incorporates numerous updates to keep the open-source software world at your fingertips. Expect to find key software updates, including GCC 13.2, Binutils 2.40, Glibc 2.38, GDB 13.2, and RPM 4.19. The release also includes updates to popular programming languages, such as Python 3.12 and Rust 1.73. Inkscape, the celebrated vector graphics illustration and drawing tool, also joins the party as it celebrates its 20th anniversary.
A Supportive Community
