Fedora Linux 39 launches with GNOME 45
Twenty years after the debut of Fedora Core 1, Fedora Project commemorates this milestone with the release of Fedora Linux 39 (available here). This iteration brings forward a suite of enhancements and updates that solidify its stance as a versatile operating system for a multitude of platforms. At the heart of Fedora Workstation 39 is GNOME 45, which promises not only improved performance but a slew of user experience refinements.
GNOME 45 introduces new widgets and a redesigned Image Viewer application, boosting both aesthetics and functionality. The desktop environment has become more informative with a dynamic workspace indicator, giving users a clear view of their virtual desktop landscape. A new camera activity indicator, alongside the pre-existing privacy features, now notifies users when their camera is accessed.
