Devuan GNU+Linux
Devuan GNU+Linux is a Linux distribution forked from Debian in 2015. The project's primary goal is to provide a variant of Debian without the complexities and dependencies of systemd, an init system and services manager originally developed by Red Hat and later adopted by most other Linux distributions. Devuan's initial beta release was made available in April 2016, together with an upgrade path from Debian 7.0 "Wheezy" and a possibility to switch to Devuan from Debian 8.0 "Jessie". The distribution adopted Xfce as its default desktop.

New to Nobara: Davinci Resolve workaround will detect if Davinci Resolve installer has been run from terminal and, after installation, will prompt for user to run a wizard to perform additional actions; payday 2 workaround will detect if the native Linux version of payday 2 is run and, if so, will use the zink driver to run it, as the OpenGL implementation is currently broken and the native version no longer receives official support; udev rules - rule added so that the 'Xbox 360' controller devices are forced to use the Xpad driver - this allows devices such as the gpd win max 2 and gpd win 4 to retain controller support while still also allowing the optional xone/xpadneo driver to be installed when users need wireless dongle and/or better bluetooth support for XBox one controllers."
