Pocketblue Brings Fedora Atomic Linux to Mobile Devices
Pocketblue brings Fedora Atomic to select ARM-powered devices, providing users with an immutable Linux system on their phones and tablets.
Pocketblue is a new project aiming to provide a version of Fedora Atomic made for mobile devices. The bad news is that it currently works on only three models: Xiaomi Pad 5, Xiaomi Pad 6, and OnePlus 6 or 6T.
The project offers Fedora Atomic system images with GNOME, Plasma, and Phosh desktops, based on Fedora 43, made specifically for phones and tablets. In other words, it brings the immutable, rpm-ostree-based setup from desktops to mobile devices, with system updates handled through image upgrades and layered changes.
