    Yup, we’ve even been able to engage (to some extent) with it for the last couple of months.

    It does require some know-how to set up, at least if you’re unaware of uBlue; a community project that is set on offering said OCI images of Fedora Silverblue (batteries included) with different desktop environments (even those that aren’t offered by Fedora (yet)). Bazzite, that has received some significant traction and exposure since it’s very recent 1.0 image, is just one of the provided OCI images.

    They even offer a very easy way for everyone to engage in building their own custom OCI image. I got mine spin up within two hours or so without knowing how git or containerfiles worked beforehand, it’s that simple.

      Hey, I’ve seen the “batteries included” thing several times related to ublue, but I don’t understand what it means here. Could you explain?

      I know what the idiom generally means - everything you need to get started - and even the origin of the expression. I just don’t know what the metaphorical “batteries” are here.
