Both Ubuntu and Fedora have made it official: support is coming soon for running local generative AI instances.
An epic and still-growing thread in the Fedora forums states one of the goals for the next version: the Fedora AI Developer Desktop Objective. It is causing some discontent, and at least one Fedora contributor, SUSE’s Fernando Mancera, has resigned.
I’ve used PikaOS which is Debian based and IMHO it’s right up there with CachyOS. super fast install, fast distro, great package manager, and repos with the latest stuff. very stable too.
