Features

  • Immutable System: ApeX OS leverages Fedora's containerized architecture for a robust and tamper-proof operating system.
  • Hardware Compatibility: Works on older hardware, giving new life to devices made obsolete by proprietary systems like Windows 11.
  • Privacy First: No data collection or intrusive telemetry, ensuring your information stays secure.
  • User-Friendly: Intuitive interface and streamlined workflows for those transitioning from Windows.
  • Built-In Compatibility: Includes Wine, Steam, and Flatpak support for a broad range of applications and games.
  • Rollback Functionality: Snapshots with rollback ensure safe updates and recovery in case of errors.
