From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It is planned for F40, which will be there in 1-2 Months.
BUT, I already use F40 beta (Edit: alpha) on Atomic KDE.

Just install Kinoite normally, and then rebase to fedora:fedora/40/x86-64/kinoite (or however it is spelled) after typing rpm-ostree remote refs fedora and selecting the right variant.

I personally had a good experience in the last days with it and it feels absolutely usable.
Maybe wait until the stable release, then you can use uBlue, which gives you a saner configuration for the start.

@Guenther_Amanita @bdonvr Fedora 40 is not in Beta yet only in Alpha until later in March

Oh, yeah, you're right. It will hit beta in a week or two. Thanks for the correction.
