Fedora Workstation 43 brings a few niceties like @gnome 49 and a new video player, but also an important change.

With this release, Fedora Workstation will be Wayland only as we finalize the migration to the new display server. It's been a long road getting to this point, but the day has come. Excited to continue to make progress in this space!

@jarekrozanski @vwbusguy the amount that's charged does go to the Lenovo team that makes this support happen, as @sesivany mentioned. They do contribute with drivers and QA and their parts vendors to make sure Linux works well. Fedora and Ubuntu support on ThinkPads does not happen without this team, so we're grateful! :)

As free Windows 10 support ends today, consider upgrading to a Linux operating system! You will continue to be protected with security updates, but you will also gain total freedom for your device.

Doesn't have to be Fedora - look around for the Linux distro that works for you. :)

Windows 10 support ends on October 14.

Help the people around you continue to be protected by helping them switch to Linux. They don't need to go buy a new computer just because Microsoft made a decision for them.

Follow @Endof10 for success stories and resources for how to help people switch!
