I changed the date format under three screenshots of different Fedora versions to improve readability. Example: (2004–11) to November 2004.

In addition to Spins, which are official variants of the Fedora system, the project allows unofficial variants to use the term "Fedora Remix" without asking for further permission, although a different logo (provided) is required.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Remix|title=Remix - Fedora Project Wiki|website=fedoraproject.org|access-date=28 September 2019|archive-date=4 September 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190904111541/https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Remix|url-status=live}}</ref>

Fedora offers immutable editions known as "Atomic Desktops".<ref>{{Cite web |title=Getting Started # Fedora Variants and how to install |url=https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/latest/getting-started/#_fedora_variants_and_how_to_install |access-date=2023-02-18 |website=Fedora Docs |language=en |quote="An immutable desktop variant of Fedora Workstation Edition" |archive-date=19 July 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240719135128/https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/latest/getting-started/#_fedora_variants_and_how_to_install |url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="Silverblue docs">{{Cite web |title=Fedora Silverblue User Guide |url=https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/ |access-date=2023-02-18 |website=Fedora Docs |language=en |quote="Fedora Silverblue is a variant of Fedora Workstation." |archive-date=11 October 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211011040633/https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/ |url-status=live}}</ref> Separate editions are offered per desktop environment, currently there are editions for [[Budgie (desktop environment)|Budgie]], [[COSMIC (desktop environment)|COSMIC]], [[GNOME]] (Silverblue), [[KDE Plasma]] (Kinoite) and [[Sway (window manager)|Sway]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Atomic Desktops for Fedora |url=https://fedoraproject.org/atomic-desktops/ |access-date=2025-01-12 |website=fedoraproject.org |language=en |archive-date=2025-01-13 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20250113000343/https://fedoraproject.org/atomic-desktops/ |url-status=live}}</ref> Every atomic desktop installation is identical to every other installation of the same version, and it never changes as it is used. The immutable design is intended to make the operating system more stable, less prone to [[Software bug|bugs]], easier to test and develop, and create a platform for containerized applications as well as container-based software development. Applications and containers are kept separate from the host system. OS updates are fast and there is no installation stage. It is possible to roll back to the previous version of the operating system, if something goes wrong.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Fedora Silverblue User Guide :: Fedora Docs|url=https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/|access-date=11 October 2021|website=docs.fedoraproject.org|archive-date=11 October 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211011040633/https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/|url-status=live}}</ref>
