It’s a PWA, just install the site on your phone as a native app. I’ve been using it for about a year.

It’s just Fedora CoreOS with some small quality-of-life packages added to the build.

There’s tons of documentation for CoreOS and it’s been around for more than a decade.

If you’re running a container workload, it can’t be beat in my opinion. All the security and configuration issues are handled for you, which is especially ideal for a home user who is generally not a security expert.

It’s just Fedora CoreOS with some QoL packages added at build time. Not niche at all. The very minor changes made are all transparent on GitHub.

Choose CoreOS if you prefer, it’s equally zero maintenance.

🤷 I’ve been running Aurora and uCore for over a year and have yet to do any maintenance.

You can roll back to the previous working build by simply restarting, it’s pretty much the easiest fix ever and still zero maintenance (since you didn’t have to reconfigure or troubleshoot anything, just restart).

They won’t apply unexpectedly, so you can schedule maintenance windows. Unless there’s a specific security risk there’s no need to apply them frequently. Total downtime is the length of a restart, which is also nice and easy.

It won’t fit every use-case, but if you’re looking for a zero-maintenance containerized-workload option, it can’t be beat.

Desktop:

• Aurora or Bluefin

Server:

• uCore

Zero maintenance for any of them.

It’s the kind of thing I host so that no matter what device I’m sitting in front of, I can easily pull it up. Hence a server is needed. I’m not talking about just my own laptop or phone, I mean any shared or borrowed device.

I find it so useful I pull it up almost every workday.

You need to add :Z to the end of your volume lines, or lowercase z for shared volumes.

I’m running 50+ containers, probably most of the popular ones, and all working fine.

I run 50+ containers with rootless Podman compose (on CoreOS) and haven’t encountered any unsolvable issues so far.

I’ve never tried quadlets but haven’t found a need or any driving reason to do so.

I get 10+ hours on Aurora-DX + AMD laptop. I think AMD might be the part which makes the big difference.

No special config, just out of the box.

They have significant documentation, and anything not covered here is just part of Fedora atomic:
