Thanks for the links, I still hadn’t rebased my desktop yet so I took a before and after of both rpm-ostree and fastfetch, and saw 209 in effect

What has me still confused is that the different bazzite update tool in the testing image was also confused by the image

I mean why would it say a stable image has a testing id and bootloader if its not testing

My journey went Ubuntu (2012) -> Kubuntu (2018) -> Manjaro (2020) -> Fedora KDE (2022)

Most computers I had were used and low-end so Linux was always my preferred OS, but I always dualbooted with the version of Windows or MacOS the machine came with when I could.

My current computers have been Linux only for a couple years now, thanks to Windows being a headache and MacOS being inflexible.
