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.

Their ISOs are uninstallable. I wanted to test it, will need to to a #silverblue install and rebase... which #uBlue doesnt document ANYWHERE
Yeah, I should have mentioned that it's not production ready or released to the public. They're quietly building it on whatever schedule they have so that when Cosmic is complete, they'll already have something to offer everyone.
ETA: I just happened to discover it when I was poking around their GitHub repositories. It's not documented for a reason 😅
I tried the ublue image, when it wasnt under the ublue name yet. Worked pretty great, I will test the current state soon!
They have a guide on how to install their base images by rebasing here. If that is what you are looking for :).
