@vriska genuinely try out the latest fedora workstation. Two catches: 1) does not work well with nvidia but won't matter of you dont have an nvidia card 2) you have to install some media codecs yourself as a one time setup thing.
After those two however its been the most flawless distro I have ever used by far. Been running it for 6 months.
ok but really when i installed debian a bit after that i went to vacation somewhere for a little while i had dogshit internet there and it was really nice to not have to worry about big ass upgrades taking 4 hours on my system, just wait 5 min for like 3 packages to upgrade and done.
Also I am aware that historically fedora has been an experimental distro and adopts technologies way too early and I just happened to catch it at a good time right now. That said, ive been told it's not "rolling release" levels of dangerous
@RustyCrab@vriska 2 things that irk me about fedora is there are no real docs. And that most troubleshooting/discussion goes down on reddit, but the reddit is the most retarded shit like "fedora don't work with Nvidia" or "I sudo rm rf / my system wat do?" I love fedora though and have used it for I think 3 years now
Fedora was one of my early distributions. I remember when they made the split of RedHat to RHEL and Fedora. I had been using a Linux From Scratch for nearly two semesters, but then I missed package management and went back to Fedora. It was my main distro for a few years, before moving to Gentoo.
@Vril_Oreilly@vriska besides the media codec thing I have had so few issues with fedora that I havent needed documentation. Rare thing to say about linux
I only have two Windows systems and I hate how I have to keep clicking that "No I don't Want Windows 11" bullshit. The moment Linux had decent HDR support, the MediaPC is going Linux.
