Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

Bluefin v20260527

👉 A modern Fedora-based Linux workstation built for everyday use and cloud-native development.

Bluefin is a next-generation Linux desktop operating system based on Fedora Atomic and the Universal Blue project. It is designed to provide a stable, secure, and maintenance-friendly workstation experience while still offering modern development tools, gaming support, multimedia features, and a polished GNOME desktop environment.

Unlike traditional Linux distributions that rely heavily on manual package management and upgrades, Bluefin uses an immutable image-based system architecture. This allows the operating system to update atomically, reducing the risk of broken updates and making system recovery significantly easier through built-in rollback capabilities.

Bluefin is focused on delivering an “install and use” Linux experience with many essential tools already configured. The system integrates Flatpak applications, Homebrew package management, containerized development environments, and modern virtualization technologies directly out of the box. It also includes developer-oriented workflows for Docker, Podman, devcontainers, and cloud-native software development.
