-L4T Fedora is a Linux distribution that offers a fast, stable, and secure operating system for various devices, including the Nintendo Switch. Fedora for Switch is a project by AzkaliManad that patches the Linux kernel to run on all Switch models using the L4T BSP. This means that Fedora can take advantage of the Nvidia drivers and hardware acceleration on the Switch. Fedora for Switch allows you to run a full desktop environment, access thousands of software packages, and enjoy some Switch games and programs natively on your device. If you are looking for a new way to experience your Switch, you can try Fedora for Switch today!
