Hey! I’m currently on Fedora Workstation and I’m getting bored. Nothing in particular. I’ve heard about immutable distros and I’m thinking about Fedora Kinoite. The idea is interesting but idk if it’s worth it. CPU and GPU are AMD. Mostly used for gaming.

      I believe Universal Blue supports Secure Boot, since they specifically went to make it work for even Nvidia users - I’m assuming it works similarly for the non Nvidia variants or maybe just uses Fedora’s default keys? I’m not too well versed in how SB works.

      Then it also comes with Distrobox so you can just spin up an Arch container and use AUR apps through there.

          Ah gotcha, I appreciate the info! I hope that someday a better solution for managing secure boot will work with immutable distros in the future then, so that you have a chance to give it a try (if you want to, of course).

      I’m not sure what you mean exactly but I use Silverblue with secureboot on and a LUKS encrypted drive using a fido2 key. To my knowledge I also could configure the use of TPM to store my key but find that setup not to my liking.

          My (maybe flawed?) thoughts: Why bother with full disk encryption if one could just boot the notebook to undo the encryption?

          Using my yubico fido 2 key in combination with a small PIN I can easily decrypt my LUKS drive and know nobody else can decrypt it as long as I have my yubico with me.

          What do you think of this?
