One of the lesser known Fedora spins under the “Fedora Labs” initiative is the Fedora Games Lab that showcases some open-source games and can serve as an easy demonstrator for Linux gaming. Looking forward to 2026 with Fedora 44, there is a proposal to revitalize Fedora Games Lab to become a better showcase for the modern potential of Linux gaming.

Fedora Games Lab as it is right now just is a showcase of Fedora with the Xfce desktop and installing a few open-source games by default. They include classic titles such as BZFlag and Freeciv to games popular among Linux die-hards like Extreme Tux Racer as well as some more well known open-source game efforts like Battle for Wesnoth and Warzone 2100.

    I totally agree but not all users will see it the same way ;) You see how often people feel entitled to get some help :)

    I would go even further -> if valve supports more hardware and opens up steamos for none business partners ( aka end users ) … the press might pressure them into things they don’t want.

      Doesn’t matter how they feel. They’re still not entitled. People might “feel” the same way about Windows but they’re not obligated to provide support there either.
