  1. hello everybody this is teca in this hello everybody this is teca in this video what we're going to be doing is video what we're going to be doing is video what we're going to be doing is checking out a brand new linux checking out a brand new linux checking out a brand new linux distribution called rizzy os now we're distribution called rizzy os now we're distribution called rizzy os now we're in the system here a little disclaimer in the system here a little disclaimer in the system here a little disclaimer before we get a little bit too deep the before we get a little bit too deep the before we get a little bit too deep the lead developer of this distribution is a lead developer of this distribution is a lead developer of this distribution is a dear friend of the channel and actually dear friend of the channel and actually dear friend of the channel and actually does some writing and video editing work does some writing and video editing work does some writing and video editing work so that is just a notice thus i so that is just a notice thus i so that is just a notice thus i obviously have a clear bias now this is obviously have a clear bias now this is obviously have a clear bias now this is nor a first impression or a long-term nor a first impression or a long-term nor a first impression or a long-term review i've been playing around with review i've been playing around with review i've been playing around with this for a couple of days kind of just this for a couple of days kind of just this for a couple of days kind of just getting a feel for the system and some getting a feel for the system and some getting a feel for the system and some of the differences now this is a fedora of the differences now this is a fedora of the differences now this is a fedora based linux distribution i do believe based linux distribution i do believe based linux distribution i do believe that this is the very first time i that this is the very first time i that this is the very first time i looked at a fedora based system that looked at a fedora based system that looked at a fedora based system that just wasn't fedora itself so that is just wasn't fedora itself so that is just wasn't fedora itself so that is pretty cool i have a very uh very high pretty cool i have a very uh very high pretty cool i have a very uh very high opinions of fedora as a whole and opinions of fedora as a whole and opinions of fedora as a whole and anything added to make fedora even anything added to make fedora even anything added to make fedora even better than it already is is awesome now better than it already is is awesome now better than it already is is awesome now first this is just standard gnome it's first this is just standard gnome it's first this is just standard gnome it's doesn't have too many changes but just doesn't have too many changes but just doesn't have too many changes but just enough to kind of make it a little bit enough to kind of make it a little bit enough to kind of make it a little bit more helpful one you bring your cursor more helpful one you bring your cursor more helpful one you bring your cursor down we got the dock without having to down we got the dock without having to down we got the dock without having to go into our go into our go into our activity view or our workstation view activity view or our workstation view activity view or our workstation view here and it does have a couple branded here and it does have a couple branded here and it does have a couple branded applications if i search up brizzy we applications if i search up brizzy we applications if i search up brizzy we have rizzy welcome and rizzy tweaks when have rizzy welcome and rizzy tweaks when have rizzy welcome and rizzy tweaks when you first boot into the system you are you first boot into the system you are you first boot into the system you are going to get this this is your rizzy going to get this this is your rizzy going to get this this is your rizzy welcome this is the big beta so this is welcome this is the big beta so this is welcome this is the big beta so this is a beta release there's probably going to a beta release there's probably going to a beta release there's probably going to be some issues here and there but what's be some issues here and there but what's be some issues here and there but what's really impressive to me and i love it really impressive to me and i love it really impressive to me and i love it when distributions do this i think when distributions do this i think when distributions do this i think endeavor os does this and a couple of endeavor os does this and a couple of endeavor os does this and a couple of others is the little first step section others is the little first step section others is the little first step section you can see i only have a couple options

  2. you can see i only have a couple options you can see i only have a couple options because i went through and did a lot of because i went through and did a lot of because i went through and did a lot of these this has a lot of the steps that these this has a lot of the steps that these this has a lot of the steps that are for example in my what to do after are for example in my what to do after are for example in my what to do after installing fedora video including installing fedora video including installing fedora video including enabling rpm fusion installing the video enabling rpm fusion installing the video enabling rpm fusion installing the video drivers if necessary and it does drivers if necessary and it does drivers if necessary and it does properly detect if you do have a nvidia properly detect if you do have a nvidia properly detect if you do have a nvidia gpu or not to actually display that and gpu or not to actually display that and gpu or not to actually display that and i will kind of show on the screen now a i will kind of show on the screen now a i will kind of show on the screen now a lot of the options that you can get with lot of the options that you can get with lot of the options that you can get with this but for example you see it i still this but for example you see it i still this but for example you see it i still have available setup flat hub and the have available setup flat hub and the have available setup flat hub and the options to launch the gnome software and options to launch the gnome software and options to launch the gnome software and install web apps which we will dive into install web apps which we will dive into install web apps which we will dive into in just a sec for example if i want to in just a sec for example if i want to in just a sec for example if i want to launch a setting up flat hub it opens up launch a setting up flat hub it opens up launch a setting up flat hub it opens up a little thing called rizzy script which a little thing called rizzy script which a little thing called rizzy script which is kind of just a graphical interface is kind of just a graphical interface is kind of just a graphical interface for bash scripts it gives you some for bash scripts it gives you some for bash scripts it gives you some information such as the properties information such as the properties information such as the properties what's required various dependencies what's required various dependencies what's required various dependencies what version it is and all that i just what version it is and all that i just what version it is and all that i just go next type in our password it's going go next type in our password it's going go next type in our password it's going to go ahead and run through everything to go ahead and run through everything to go ahead and run through everything and we can see the script was ran and we can see the script was ran and we can see the script was ran successfully so we hit ok and for now successfully so we hit ok and for now successfully so we hit ok and for now i'm going to go ahead and reboot later i'm going to go ahead and reboot later i'm going to go ahead and reboot later because i don't think it i actually because i don't think it i actually because i don't think it i actually needed to install that and then after needed to install that and then after needed to install that and then after first steps we have a thing called quick first steps we have a thing called quick first steps we have a thing called quick setup what this is is just a list of setup what this is is just a list of setup what this is is just a list of packages that you could go ahead and packages that you could go ahead and packages that you could go ahead and install for example video production install for example video production install for example video production right here if i were to launch this it right here if i were to launch this it right here if i were to launch this it would open up brizzy script again which would open up brizzy script again which would open up brizzy script again which here you can see a setup environment for here you can see a setup environment for here you can see a setup environment for video production if i go next here it video production if i go next here it video production if i go next here it gives me options if i want to install gives me options if i want to install gives me options if i want to install obs audio editor so if i want to install obs audio editor so if i want to install obs audio editor so if i want to install audacity and then i can pick audacity and then i can pick audacity and then i can pick whatever video editor from here and it whatever video editor from here and it whatever video editor from here and it will just go ahead and grab all the will just go ahead and grab all the will just go ahead and grab all the software that i would be using anyway so software that i would be using anyway so software that i would be using anyway so that's pretty cool i'm not going to do that's pretty cool i'm not going to do that's pretty cool i'm not going to do that for now another example would be

  3. that for now another example would be that for now another example would be gaming if i go ahead and launch this and gaming if i go ahead and launch this and gaming if i go ahead and launch this and go next you can see some of these go next you can see some of these go next you can see some of these options steam is the only one on by options steam is the only one on by options steam is the only one on by default but in addition we have gog epic default but in addition we have gog epic default but in addition we have gog epic a whole bunch of different launchers a whole bunch of different launchers a whole bunch of different launchers some tools such as polymc which is a some tools such as polymc which is a some tools such as polymc which is a excellent launcher for minecraft i agree excellent launcher for minecraft i agree excellent launcher for minecraft i agree with that uh discord and a whole bunch with that uh discord and a whole bunch with that uh discord and a whole bunch of other things that you would of other things that you would of other things that you would just associate with gaming and then of just associate with gaming and then of just associate with gaming and then of course there's other categories we're course there's other categories we're course there's other categories we're not going to dive into absolutely not going to dive into absolutely not going to dive into absolutely everything you should kind of go through everything you should kind of go through everything you should kind of go through and uh discover that for yourself and uh discover that for yourself and uh discover that for yourself additionally there's joint community so additionally there's joint community so additionally there's joint community so you can follow them on socials and then you can follow them on socials and then you can follow them on socials and then contribute to resi os now it's from contribute to resi os now it's from contribute to resi os now it's from there i want to go to rizzy tweaks this there i want to go to rizzy tweaks this there i want to go to rizzy tweaks this is pretty cool um even with my bias i do is pretty cool um even with my bias i do is pretty cool um even with my bias i do have to say that i do wish the general have to say that i do wish the general have to say that i do wish the general design of this kind of matched better design of this kind of matched better design of this kind of matched better with like uh i open up extensions here with like uh i open up extensions here with like uh i open up extensions here we go kind of matched up with what you'd we go kind of matched up with what you'd we go kind of matched up with what you'd expect from like gtk4 applications but expect from like gtk4 applications but expect from like gtk4 applications but this is an earlier version so we might this is an earlier version so we might this is an earlier version so we might see that change in the future here we see that change in the future here we see that change in the future here we have a lot of options we have appearance have a lot of options we have appearance have a lot of options we have appearance so we can enable disable animations we so we can enable disable animations we so we can enable disable animations we have accent colors so that's pretty cool have accent colors so that's pretty cool have accent colors so that's pretty cool has some notes here and i think i has some notes here and i think i has some notes here and i think i actually enabled this through actually enabled this through actually enabled this through experiments so i installed drizzy tweaks experiments so i installed drizzy tweaks experiments so i installed drizzy tweaks next which gave me the uh the theming next which gave me the uh the theming next which gave me the uh the theming support here so that's one thing i kind support here so that's one thing i kind support here so that's one thing i kind of already was diving around and playing of already was diving around and playing of already was diving around and playing with but if i go ahead and like switch with but if i go ahead and like switch with but if i go ahead and like switch this to purple for example and then this to purple for example and then this to purple for example and then close out this application open up rizzy close out this application open up rizzy close out this application open up rizzy tweaks once again you can see it's now tweaks once again you can see it's now tweaks once again you can see it's now using purple accent colors so that's using purple accent colors so that's using purple accent colors so that's purple the little switch right there's purple the little switch right there's purple the little switch right there's purple uh pretty cool you have some purple uh pretty cool you have some purple uh pretty cool you have some other theming options a bunch of other theming options a bunch of other theming options a bunch of different options if we go to layout you

  4. different options if we go to layout you different options if we go to layout you just have some general switch options just have some general switch options just have some general switch options for the gnome layouts and desktop for the gnome layouts and desktop for the gnome layouts and desktop environment you have some mouse and environment you have some mouse and environment you have some mouse and keyboard settings here including some keyboard settings here including some keyboard settings here including some touchpad settings if i go over to touchpad settings if i go over to touchpad settings if i go over to windows you have really strong control windows you have really strong control windows you have really strong control of what the windows do and over here of what the windows do and over here of what the windows do and over here under the title bar you can change under the title bar you can change under the title bar you can change everything from here so right now i have everything from here so right now i have everything from here so right now i have this set to mac os right but if i go to this set to mac os right but if i go to this set to mac os right but if i go to like rizzy right you can see it just like rizzy right you can see it just like rizzy right you can see it just gets rid of maximize so these are just gets rid of maximize so these are just gets rid of maximize so these are just kind of preset templates for how the kind of preset templates for how the kind of preset templates for how the buttons and all that within your windows buttons and all that within your windows buttons and all that within your windows are set up so if i went to gnome right are set up so if i went to gnome right are set up so if i went to gnome right it just takes away everything because it just takes away everything because it just takes away everything because for some reason i don't give you for some reason i don't give you for some reason i don't give you minimize or maximize or i could go like minimize or maximize or i could go like minimize or maximize or i could go like rizzy left which throws it over there rizzy left which throws it over there rizzy left which throws it over there but my preference is to have the but my preference is to have the but my preference is to have the availability to do just about everything availability to do just about everything availability to do just about everything and from there we have extension control and from there we have extension control and from there we have extension control so you can kind of use this to manage so you can kind of use this to manage so you can kind of use this to manage your extensions in addition to the your extensions in addition to the your extensions in addition to the standard extension application grizzly standard extension application grizzly standard extension application grizzly script we kind of saw this earlier with script we kind of saw this earlier with script we kind of saw this earlier with how this kind of gives us a graphical how this kind of gives us a graphical how this kind of gives us a graphical interface for scripts now these right interface for scripts now these right interface for scripts now these right here are some installers and i could go here are some installers and i could go here are some installers and i could go through here and like grab chrome edge through here and like grab chrome edge through here and like grab chrome edge whatever i wanted so let's just grab whatever i wanted so let's just grab whatever i wanted so let's just grab edge for example install app next type edge for example install app next type edge for example install app next type in our password and the idea of this in in our password and the idea of this in in our password and the idea of this in the future is going to be to be able to the future is going to be to be able to the future is going to be to be able to like run brizzy script files which would like run brizzy script files which would like run brizzy script files which would be kind of cool but you can see here be kind of cool but you can see here be kind of cool but you can see here it's just running through everything it it's just running through everything it it's just running through everything it needs to go and grab microsoft edge and needs to go and grab microsoft edge and needs to go and grab microsoft edge and honestly microsoft edge is a very good honestly microsoft edge is a very good honestly microsoft edge is a very good web browser on linux it's probably one web browser on linux it's probably one web browser on linux it's probably one of the best pdf viewing applications for of the best pdf viewing applications for of the best pdf viewing applications for a linux system unfortunately and there a linux system unfortunately and there a linux system unfortunately and there we go script ran successfully so then if we go script ran successfully so then if we go script ran successfully so then if i do hit my windows key and i go to

  5. i do hit my windows key and i go to i do hit my windows key and i go to microsoft edge you can see it is there microsoft edge you can see it is there microsoft edge you can see it is there and while we have this open let's kind and while we have this open let's kind and while we have this open let's kind of move on to some of the pre-installed of move on to some of the pre-installed of move on to some of the pre-installed applications applications applications it's not too different from fedora but it's not too different from fedora but it's not too different from fedora but there are a couple things to note one there are a couple things to note one there are a couple things to note one only office is the default which i only office is the default which i only office is the default which i personally enjoy only office is awesome personally enjoy only office is awesome personally enjoy only office is awesome and you saw we have extensions here if i and you saw we have extensions here if i and you saw we have extensions here if i go into this extensions application we go into this extensions application we go into this extensions application we can kind of see what is going on here so can kind of see what is going on here so can kind of see what is going on here so under built-in we have case status under built-in we have case status under built-in we have case status notifier we have a doc from dash enabled notifier we have a doc from dash enabled notifier we have a doc from dash enabled a removable drive menu resinome which is a removable drive menu resinome which is a removable drive menu resinome which is the gnome shell modifications for this the gnome shell modifications for this the gnome shell modifications for this system and we have the sound input and system and we have the sound input and system and we have the sound input and output device chooser something that i output device chooser something that i output device chooser something that i still don't understand still don't understand still don't understand why it's just not a default feature why it's just not a default feature why it's just not a default feature within this desktop environment so with within this desktop environment so with within this desktop environment so with that what we're going to do is dive into that what we're going to do is dive into that what we're going to do is dive into the web apps now this is cool this is the web apps now this is cool this is the web apps now this is cool this is basically the exact same web app manager basically the exact same web app manager basically the exact same web app manager that is in linux mint which is a that is in linux mint which is a that is in linux mint which is a phenomenal application except for that phenomenal application except for that phenomenal application except for that rizios is incorporating a store a web rizios is incorporating a store a web rizios is incorporating a store a web app store within this app store within this app store within this so this is the application here and if i so this is the application here and if i so this is the application here and if i do click on store you can see we have a do click on store you can see we have a do click on store you can see we have a couple pre-set applications and i'm couple pre-set applications and i'm couple pre-set applications and i'm assuming as time goes on there's going assuming as time goes on there's going assuming as time goes on there's going to be a lot more added accessories you to be a lot more added accessories you to be a lot more added accessories you can see uh some of the apple stuff let's can see uh some of the apple stuff let's can see uh some of the apple stuff let's say for some unholy reason we want to say for some unholy reason we want to say for some unholy reason we want to use microsoft bing maps all i would do use microsoft bing maps all i would do use microsoft bing maps all i would do is go ahead and grab that and it kind of is go ahead and grab that and it kind of is go ahead and grab that and it kind of just fills everything out for us so just fills everything out for us so just fills everything out for us so categories accessories it's going to categories accessories it's going to categories accessories it's going to open up with the chromium browser i open up with the chromium browser i open up with the chromium browser i could switch that if i wanted to based could switch that if i wanted to based could switch that if i wanted to based on what web browsers i have installed on what web browsers i have installed on what web browsers i have installed and of course you can make this isolated

  6. and of course you can make this isolated and of course you can make this isolated or a private window so all i would do is or a private window so all i would do is or a private window so all i would do is hit ok from there you can see i have hit ok from there you can see i have hit ok from there you can see i have bing maps and now if i go ahead i have bing maps and now if i go ahead i have bing maps and now if i go ahead i have to give it a sec oh there it is to give it a sec oh there it is to give it a sec oh there it is bing bing maps it opens up bing maps in bing bing maps it opens up bing maps in bing bing maps it opens up bing maps in its own isolated web application here its own isolated web application here its own isolated web application here and i will note these uh graphical and i will note these uh graphical and i will note these uh graphical things going on is my virtual machine things going on is my virtual machine things going on is my virtual machine and not the actual system and then of and not the actual system and then of and not the actual system and then of course down here you go ahead and add course down here you go ahead and add course down here you go ahead and add your own do whatever you see fit it's your own do whatever you see fit it's your own do whatever you see fit it's your standard web app thing pretty cool your standard web app thing pretty cool your standard web app thing pretty cool another thing that's kind of cool another thing that's kind of cool another thing that's kind of cool there's its own a search x instance so there's its own a search x instance so there's its own a search x instance so if i go over here you can see we have rz if i go over here you can see we have rz if i go over here you can see we have rz os and we could search with rizzy search os and we could search with rizzy search os and we could search with rizzy search gives us some information if i hit gives us some information if i hit gives us some information if i hit settings you could go ahead and settings you could go ahead and settings you could go ahead and change that if you do so see fit and if change that if you do so see fit and if change that if you do so see fit and if i search something up here so let's i search something up here so let's i search something up here so let's search up hut you can see it pull up so search up hut you can see it pull up so search up hut you can see it pull up so that's just one thing and another thing that's just one thing and another thing that's just one thing and another thing which i love when distributions do this which i love when distributions do this which i love when distributions do this is when they have their own is when they have their own is when they have their own shell script so this is actually running shell script so this is actually running shell script so this is actually running zsh that is another thing that is zsh that is another thing that is zsh that is another thing that is different from fedora automatically different from fedora automatically different from fedora automatically opens up a really nice neo fetch with opens up a really nice neo fetch with opens up a really nice neo fetch with their logo here we can see this is the their logo here we can see this is the their logo here we can see this is the 5.18 kernel zsh i'm using about two and 5.18 kernel zsh i'm using about two and 5.18 kernel zsh i'm using about two and a half gigs of ram of the eight gigs i a half gigs of ram of the eight gigs i a half gigs of ram of the eight gigs i gave and i've been opening and doing all gave and i've been opening and doing all gave and i've been opening and doing all kinds of stuff when it comes to resource kinds of stuff when it comes to resource kinds of stuff when it comes to resource consumption it's basically on par with consumption it's basically on par with consumption it's basically on par with just a regular fedora install just a regular fedora install just a regular fedora install h top isn't here so let's grab that sudo h top isn't here so let's grab that sudo h top isn't here so let's grab that sudo dnf h-top nope not that sudo dnf install dnf h-top nope not that sudo dnf install dnf h-top nope not that sudo dnf install h-top one thing to the developer here uh h-top one thing to the developer here uh h-top one thing to the developer here uh is this okay is this okay is this okay let's change the default to why shall we let's change the default to why shall we let's change the default to why shall we that's just a personal and obviously you

  7. that's just a personal and obviously you that's just a personal and obviously you can see when i'm typing it has its own can see when i'm typing it has its own can see when i'm typing it has its own little uh custom custom little design little uh custom custom little design little uh custom custom little design here so let's go each top and of course here so let's go each top and of course here so let's go each top and of course it's fedora it's gonna be very light on it's fedora it's gonna be very light on it's fedora it's gonna be very light on the cpu usage unless we're doing the cpu usage unless we're doing the cpu usage unless we're doing something heavy and memory is something heavy and memory is something heavy and memory is basically right about where it should be basically right about where it should be basically right about where it should be so again this is in beta it's pretty new so again this is in beta it's pretty new so again this is in beta it's pretty new so if you have any criticisms critiques so if you have any criticisms critiques so if you have any criticisms critiques or if i go over to the welcome again or if i go over to the welcome again or if i go over to the welcome again right there contribute contribute code right there contribute contribute code right there contribute contribute code launch this right here is the github launch this right here is the github launch this right here is the github which i will be linking to as well as which i will be linking to as well as which i will be linking to as well as the website which is right here it is a the website which is right here it is a the website which is right here it is a seattle based os that you can trust seattle based os that you can trust seattle based os that you can trust so that's rizios excited to see the so that's rizios excited to see the so that's rizios excited to see the future development and what is made of future development and what is made of future development and what is made of it um like i said this was the very it um like i said this was the very it um like i said this was the very first time i checked out something first time i checked out something first time i checked out something that's fedora without it being that's fedora without it being that's fedora without it being specifically fedora so if you have any specifically fedora so if you have any specifically fedora so if you have any fedora distributions or fedora based fedora distributions or fedora based fedora distributions or fedora based distributions that are worth a look distributions that are worth a look distributions that are worth a look leave them down below in the comments uh leave them down below in the comments uh leave them down below in the comments uh with all that i do hope you have an with all that i do hope you have an with all that i do hope you have an absolutely beautiful day and good bye
