    Been using it as my daily driver for the last couple of years and I am very happy with it.

    When there are issues they are solvable, and the options for getting software, via apt, snap, flatpak, etc. Means that I can really pick and choose how I use my machine.

    Even gaming is so much better than it used to be. A lot of things just work.

    Very happy with it, and the latest update was quite a nice little refresh of the UI.

      My absolute favourite part of the update is being able to save things to “Starred” files directly from the download window. I didn’t realize how much it bothered me.

        Y’all making me want to try Ubuntu again. It was go to whenever I dual booted, but finally made the full time switch to fedora a while back. Maybe I should dual boot fedora/Ubuntu for the fun of it. Haha.

          Don’t. I just set up a Linux Mint system for someone. I had a hell of a time trying to figure out the convoluted network and dns systems.

          I use Windows on the desktop right now, but if I switched to Linux, it would probably be Fedora. I’d suggest sticking with that.

            I don’t do anything in depth enough for those things to really impact me. I’m mostly a browser and Google docs person. Honestly, my biggest gripe with fedora isn’t even a fedora problem, it’s just that anytime I look up how to do something, it gives Debian based instructions and I get a little lost trying to figure out how to do it on fedora.

              Usually it’s not that different, though substitute dnf for apt, and package names might be slightly different. If you find instructions for Fedora, Red Hat, CentOS, Rocky, or Alma they’re usually all compatible since they’re all derived from the same source.

              Probably. But it shouldn’t be that difficult to just set the damn DNS servers. Used to be you just edited resolv.conf and that was it.
