A new version of NixOS, which is a Linux distribution based on the Nix package manager, has been released: NixOS 23.05 is now available. The release notes list numerous updates, including Nix 2.13, Linux 6.1, glibc 2.37, Cinnamon 5.6, GNOME 44, and KDE Plasma 5.27.
The 23.05 release was made possible due to the efforts of 1867 contributors, who authored 36566 commits since the previous release. Our thanks go the contributors who also take care of the continued stability and security of our stable release.
NixOS is already known as the most up to date distribution while also being the distribution with the most packages. This release saw 16240 new packages and 13524 updated packages in Nixpkgs. We also removed 13466 packages in an effort to keep the package set maintainable and secure. In addition to packages the NixOS distribution also features modules and tests that make it what it is. This release brought 282 new modules and removed 183. In that process we added 2882 options and removed 728.
Along with the standard deb version of the open-source operating system, Canonical will release an-all snap version.
Canonical says that it's excited to explore the idea of a fully containerized and immutable Ubuntu desktop in the near future.
Canonical's Snap packaging system has been the center of many controversies in the Linux world since its inception back in 2014.
There are two sides to it, one side supports Snaps due to its ease of use, and the other side isn't a fan of Canonical's closed-source approach to it.
And this upcoming move by them is just going to stir the pot even more.
Ubuntu published a blog post about its Ubuntu Core desktop work after this Ars Technica post was published. Noting that Snaps "are a little famous for having some rough edges on the desktop," Product Manager Oliver Smith writes that, "[n]evertheless, we are excited to explore the idea of a fully containerised [UK sic] desktop, where each component is immutable and isolated." Ubuntu, Smith writes, has been "steadily improving" desktop snaps, and, "in due course, when we think the entire system can be delivered this way," a desktop Core version will be offered.
Ubuntu's post suggests that a Core-based desktop would allow for "secure boot, recovery states and hardware backed encryption," experiments "with alternative desktop environment snaps," and opting in to certain kernel channels, such as those with the latest NVIDIA drivers. Original post follows.]
Ubuntu Core has existed since 2014, providing a fully containerized, immutable Linux distribution aimed at Internet of Things (IoT) and edge computing applications. Each piece of the system contains all the dependencies it requires, and just enough of its own tiny Linux architecture, that applications are largely sandboxed from one another, providing better security and, in theory, stability and ease of upgrades and rollbacks.
Ubuntu plans to release an all-snap immutable version of Ubuntu for the desktop, a move that could be a turning point for the Linux distro.
Canonical and its Ubuntu have done more to popularize Linux than virtually any other Linux distro, making the open source operating system accessible to the masses. In recent years, however, the company has made a number of decisions that have alienated users, none as much as snaps.
Snaps are Ubuntu’s universal package format, designed to work across all distros, including Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, openSUSE, and more — all without requiring developers to build their apps for the specific distro they’re targeting.

Git is one of the most popular Version Control Systems (VCS) currently in use, and it provides a wide range of commands to manage and manipulate the history of your codebase. Understanding these commands and their subtleties can significantly improve your efficiency and the way you work with a codebase.
