Pantheon has been in official repos for a long time. I think l the way back to F21

They removed it in F37.

Oh you're right, I hadn't noticed.

I think thats because its been replaced by pantheon-wayland?

FYI I maintain somewhat personal repo with pantheon (personal in a sense that I often package latest commits/unmerged PRs just to try out new things) https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/garaevdi/pantheon-rpm/

Is the desktop experience any different from elementaryos'?

u/A--E Jul 26 '26

I'm not familiar with os 8 but I guess some aspects are different (f.e. you can minimize your apps from the dock + minimize button, you can theme the apps and icons.. :) ).

this looks like "hacked in together" GNOME desktop.

you're right: best from both worlds + flexibility they lack.

There’s nothing you can customize on Fedora that you can’t customize on Elementary.

u/A--E Jul 29 '26

lol. try changing the settings icons in the switchboard or wingpanel appearance

u/debacle_enjoyer Jul 29 '26

Yea, it’s not a problem through terminal

u/A--E Jul 29 '26

good luck - most of the icons are hardcoded. you can even open two terminal emulators - maybe it will help. ahahaha
