I was early on Silverblue but went to Workstation. The Fedora Anaconda UEFI shim on enthusiast edge class hardware is flawless. The ability to roll back if there are any issues is default config. Encrypted drives are easy. NVME is managed. Nvidia kernel modules are built lightning fast in the background. I have a dozen distrobox container environments each with layers of Python containers within. I occasionally have a minor issue, like upgrading to F40 put me on Python too far ahead for some projects, but it was an easy fix for me.

Unfortunately I must be on a shim, so only Fedora and Ubuntu exist on my main.

I didn't mean that negatively, but I remember you talking about leaving Lemmy some time back, good to see you are still here

I gave it a month off and still felt like coming back. Tried it, and apparently the controversy had passed, so I let it go. I still would like to self host, mostly to self publish a book that no one will read but self hosting is a daunting prospect for the inexperienced.
