From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm not the original replier. I'm not sure these differences since I'm using another distro. This is my best take : take it with a grain of salt.
Silverblue is container based : each program is independent for security and stability. They are containes as flatpaks.
Ublue and bazzite are docker based, meaning they are immutable, meaning they should work as expected and are very stable.
Fedora is the base distro. It's like Pop!_OS
