From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Have you tried Silverblue? If Bluefin's Gnome customisation isn't for you I expect Silverblue would be much closer to Workstation
Yeah I use silverblue on another computer and previously on this one, but the killer feature of bluefin is that NVIDIA drivers and codecs are built right into the image (as with the other ublue images) meaning that you don't need to layer them and risk a bad upgrade. I'm planning on bringing the other computer over as well even though it's AMD, at least I'll get ROCm and the codecs.
Use the universal blue silverblue-nvidia image to get silverblue with Nvidia built in
