    Description:
    The Universal Blue project has announced the release of BluefinLTS ,
    an image-based distribution similar to Bluefin that uses
    CentOSStream10 and EPEL instead of Fedora as its base: Bluefin LTS ships with Linux 6.12.0, which is the kernel for the
    lifetime of release. An optional hwe branch with new kernels is
    available, offering the same modern kernel you'll find in Bluefin and
    Bluefin GTS. Both vanilla and HWE ISOs are available, and you can
    always choose to switch back and forth after installation. [...] Bluefin LTS provides a backported GNOME desktop so that you are not
    left behind. This is an important thing for us. James has been
    diligently working on GNOME backports with the upstream CentOS
    community, and we feel bringing modern GNOME desktops to an LTS makes
    sense.
