Our mobile Linux distro, Luma, just released in alpha

We've been building Luma, a desktop / tablet / mobile OS with Apple-like continuity across different devices. At its core, Luma is built off of a modified Fedora 44 Silverblue and GNOME.

Today Luma Mobile (the first Alpha version) is finally available for download.

It officially supports the Fairphone 6 - we are working on the Pixel 9 family and expect it to release next week. HOWEVER, porting Luma to different devices is surprisingly easy (assuming the devices themselves are willing to play ball). We encourage technical folks to use the guides on the website to try porting it to other devices today!

We will be announcing a giveaway/contest later to the tune of $1,000 regarding ports (a sort of 7 day sprint contest where we give $250 to 4 random successful mobile ports completed by next Friday).

Anyway, we'd love for you to check out Luma, submit bug reports and make feature requests! Let us know what you think!
