Description:
The Fedora Project has announced the release of FedoraLinux44. There are "what's new"
articles for Fedora
Workstation , Fedora
KDEPlasmaDesktop , and Fedora
Atomic Desktops . The Fedora Asahi Remix for Apple Silicon Macs,
based on Fedora44, is also
available . See the Fedora Spins page for a full list of alternative desktop options. Fedora Linux 44 Workstation ships with the latest GNOME release,
GNOME 50. This comes with a long list of refinements to your desktop,
including everything from accessibility to color management and remote
desktop. Many of the applications that are installed by default on
Fedora Workstation have also seen improvements, from Document Viewer
to File Manager and Calendar. To learn more about these and other
changes, you can read the GNOME 50 release notes . KDE Plasma Desktop: If you are a KDE user, you should also notice a
couple of very obvious changes. Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop 44 is based
on the latest Plasma 6.6, which includes the new Plasma Login Manager
and Plasma Setup to provide a more cohesive and integrated experience
from the moment the computer is powered on for the first time. The
installation process has been simplified, enabling you to easily set
up Fedora KDE Plasma Desktop for a computer for a friend or a loved
one. The release
notes include important changes between Fedora43 and
Fedora44 for desktop users, developers, and system administrators.
