AerynOS

@fredericbezies Initial Gnome 50 PR has landed but more work to do: github.com/AerynOS/recipe… We are currently prepping for a full repo rebuild and a few other big tasks so things have been a little quieter than usual but we have progressed with Gnome 50 and Plasma 6.6.3 #AerynOS #Linux #FOSS

Ça donne quoi AerynOS au bout de 15 jours en machine virtuelle ? blog.fredericbezies-ep.fr/2026/03/18/aer…

Joey Riches will be using it as a dedicated device to dogfood and help develop AerynOS. His initial feedback has been very positive, commenting that the fingerprint sensor works without fuss and that the speakers are some of the best he has experienced on a laptop!

A big shout out to @FrameworkPuter for their continued support of our project! They have provided us with an AMD AI 300 based Framework 16. The installation process went smoothly and all hardware is working OOTB! #Linux #AerynOS #Framework #FOSS

@FrameworkPuter For the keen eyed amongst you, it's a Framework 16, not a Framework 13!

Unstable Stream Updates: 11th of March 2026 A big update this week with changes across the board. The full details can be found on our GitHub Discussions post github.com/orgs/AerynOS/d… #AerynOS #Linux #FOSS

@banger_x Hey Tim, We use a net installer meaning it always pulls the latest packages from our repository so having no new packages is expected after a fresh install. We sync roughly once a week but it's not currently set in stone. To confirm, the update command is "sudo moss sync -u"

@AerynOS_Linux did we sync yet, I just installed the Feb 26 ISO and it says no packages when I do moss u

@banger_x We haven't yet formalised a day of the week but on average we are syncing about once a week. Our last sync was near the end of last week so some time in the coming days. We don't have any particular time at all.

@AerynOS_Linux when is sync day and approx time?

AerynOS February 2026 Project Update We have had a pretty busy month this month around the project. Find out all the juicy details in the latest blog post! aerynos.com/blog/2026/02/2… #AerynOS #Linux #DistroDevelopment

@WTFxBOTK2W At this point in time, we aren't looking at supporting any other init system. We are fairly heavily utilising systemd for reference so whether it's even possible to replace and get the functionality needed, I'm not sure (not to say it couldn't be done).

@AerynOS_Linux hello do AerynOs have interest in no systemd or is it possible to manually replace it with a dinit init system

AerynOS has landed Plasma 6.6 in our Volatile repository. So far, everything seems to be running nicely but we will keep it in our volatile repository for around a week whilst we do further testing. #AerynOS #Linux #KDEPlasma #Plasma

@carlrichell @rennnehzinha He is good people!

@AerynOS_Linux @rennnehzinha Indeed. That's also the same person working on the official design 😉.

hey @carlrichell question, which program you use for image/pdf view? i'm officially on cosmic now, and i wanna know. ty.

@qizilyildiz We have an internal roadmap of what we want to get done but we aren't putting hard deadlines and/or sharing those publicly. I appreciate it might not be what you want to hear but we don't want to set a self imposed expectations that look bad if we don't meet them.

@AerynOS_Linux Do you think version 1.0 will be released in 2026?

5 atomic Linux distros I trust for stress-free OS updates - and why zdnet.com/article/atomic…

@JayzTwoCents We are using @zulip. We set it up 3 months ago before this latest Discord self-own for our community and it's been working great! Especially as Zulip is open source and give free sponsorship to open source projects! As an open source

So now that Discord basically shot an RPG at its own face, what is everyone going to move to now? If Discord backtracks and drops age verification will you stay or go anyway? What's the census?

AerynOS is the atomic Linux distro nobody is talking about bit.ly/4qv8H4x

@xdadevelopers Thanks for the high level overview of our distro! If you ever have questions or want to know more, feel free to reach out and we can have a more in-depth conversation about what we are doing!
