Weird. That used to say "container-native", which at least makes sense -- it heavily emphasizes container technologies like Flatpak, Docker/Podman, and Distrobox.
There's no yum or dnf like on a standard Fedora system (though you can use rpm-ostree if you are desperate). As an "immutable" distro, it's designed so that you do not install apps at the system level.
I used container native originally because gamers are allergic to the word cloud, rightfully so.
Container native is wrong though, and I'm confident enough now to call it exactly what it is.
But none of those technologies are cloud specific so calling it cloud native is confusingly wrong.
